In this episode of Psychology & the Soul™, we explore narcissism beyond the buzzword — moving past labels and into a deeper understanding of patterns, behavior, and lived experience.

Narcissism is often talked about…
but rarely understood.

It’s not just about labeling someone.
It’s about recognizing what’s happening within relationships — and within yourself.

Hosted by Kellee White, LMFT, and Dr. Shirley Impellizzeri, PhD, this episode brings together psychology and awareness to unpack how narcissistic patterns impact emotional safety, perception, and identity.

✨ In This Episode, We Discuss:
What narcissism is — and what it isn’t

• The difference between traits and personality disorder
  
  
• Emotional manipulation, projection, and lack of accountability
  
  
• Gaslighting and how it affects your sense of reality
  
  
• Why confusion is often the first sign something is off
  
  
• How to recognize when you’re losing connection to yourself
  
  
• The role of boundaries in self-protection
  
  
• What boundaries actually look like in real life
  
  
• Why over-explaining doesn’t create change
  
  
• How to come back to your own clarity and truth
  
  

This is not about diagnosing others.
It’s about awareness.

Because when you understand the pattern…
you can stop questioning yourself.

If you’ve ever felt:

• Confused in conversations
  
  
• Like everything becomes your fault
  
  
• Emotionally exhausted or on edge
  
  
• Like you’re constantly explaining yourself
  
  

This episode will help you reconnect to your own reality.
