Covert narcissists are in the clothing of fathers, mothers, partners, friends, family members, and coworkers. NPD is not expressed the same way in every individual, but there are typical patterns that are very common. If you hear many or most of these attitudes and behaviors in a person you know, you're probably dealing with someone who suffers—and makes others suffer—with covert narcissism.

This is the audio I use in my course, "How To Unlock Your Attachment Style," to teach you how to create, utilize, and put boundaries in place! Part of healing your attachment style and creating healthy, loving, and successful relationships is learning to use your personal power to keep yourself calm, and boundaries are the most significant part of taking your power back. Honoring yourself is the key; nonassertive people, people-pleasers do not utilize boundaries, and their life suffers. Stop apo...

Your personality develops from infancy throughout your lifetime. Yes, we have innate abilities and characteristics, but our programmers (parents, peers, teachers, society) have the most impact on what we believe about ourselves and life. Our protector/controller observes our environment and determines which behaviors will work best and please the most amount of people. We create reactions to our environment. The question I need to help a person heal is how does the unaware ego protect the indivi...

Is your partner selfish? Selfish people tell others how selfish they are, but selfishness is when you demand that other people cater to your feelings, wants, and needs.

Criticism has tremendous power and can be devastating to our developing sense of self. It becomes the truth of who we believe we are. People that are still wounded from the negative criticism they received as a child are not only extremely hard on themself; their inner critic is brutal, they're also very hard on others. People report being nervous around them. Their partners feel like they're walking around on eggshells, trying not to wake the beast within. And this is because you apply your own...

Are there different levels of narcissism? YES! What about codependents? Yes! The main difference between a codependent and narcissist is that the CD is consciously aware of their pattern, loneliness and that something is wrong. Alone, both will always feel incomplete, unsatisfied, and lonely. Together, they can forget what is wrong with and what they dislike about themselves. They have escaped shame and loneliness and replaced it with what they know best, chaos, dysfunction, and toxicity. Here i...

Do you or your partner make ultimatums? For example, do either of you say things you regret saying like, "I want a divorce," "You don't care about me," "I want to break up." Of course, no one is ever proud of this behavior but when in pain, your attachment style gets activated, and what the other person does or doesn't do triggers your reaction. Eventually, the crisis will pass, but it will end if your anxious, preoccupied attachment style continues to sabotage the relationship. Email me with qu...

Dating is not easy; dating the opposite attachment style is a disaster. Adults show patterns of attachment to their romantic partners very similar to the attachment they had with their parent/s; other events come into play, too. When two people form an intimate relationship, they regulate each other's psychological and emotional well-being. One must stop confusing love and passion for an activated attachment system, which is anxious, insecure, and obsessive with small windows of feeling secure; ...

The way we think, the way we feel, the way we act becomes so routine we no longer put our attention on what we are doing or what we want. We keep acting and reacting and behaving in a certain way that brings in more negativity, more angst in relationships, more of what we don't want, but we expect different results. And that is insanity. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. How do we stop?

You elevate your life by taking responsibility for who you are and what you are choosing to become. Most people are already suffering, and they continue to hold onto useless suffering by staying stuck in unhappy, toxic, dysfunctional relationships, careers they hate, with disrespectful, commandos, or uninvolved bosses, and in turn, they are always wishing and wanting but never having. Why not opt for some useful suffering to get where you want to go and then let go of the misery for good? Listen...

Longing is at the root of relationship problems. It spins off from four different mindsets: 1. Reality is not the way we want it. 2. We want somebody or something to change. 3. We believe we are responsible to bring about change in someone or something. 4. We want to protect or rescue someone. Longing is an obsession. You don't know what you can do if anything, but you desperately want to control another and help them change. To book your free 45-minute clarity call you can click here!...
