Show Notes
What if they aren't actually a covert narcissist? What if you're wrong — and you walk away from someone who genuinely loves you? If that question has been keeping you stuck, this episode is for you.

We walk through the four questions to ask yourself when you can't find clarity, why you do not need a diagnosis to deserve better, and the most important reframe of all: what if you're not wrong — you're just afraid you are?
