In this episode, I join Dr. Nae and her support group to unpack the deep roots of narcissism and the challenges it brings to healing trauma bonds. We explore how hope, projection, and hidden relational patterns keep people entangled—and why differentiation is key to breaking free. If you’re ready to understand and heal from these complex dynamics, this conversation offers fresh insight and hope. 

Here is a chapter of Dr. Nae's "Run Like Hell" for free. https://heal.drnae.com/podcast-book-giveaway
