    20. Conformitygate - Why Does It Matter?
    Jan 7 2026
    Hello and welcome to Conformitygate.

    What does narcissism have to do with Stranger Things, you might be asking...

    In this episode, I'll dive into the parallels between what narcissists say and do, and how this relates to broader topics like the workplace, the government, Drs, and yes - Stranger Things.

    I'll also be covering why trust matters in this equation.

    It's a short ep this week, enjoy!

    18. Season 1 Wrap Up
    Jul 12 2024

    Hello and welcome to the last episode of season 1.

    Thank you for joining us for this journey.
    We have learned so much since starting the pod in October, and boy has it been a wild ride.
    Personally, professionally, emotionally - all the allys - so much has changed for us both.

    We will be taking a little bit of a break now, planning for season 2 and deciding what that looks like now that our lovely Alison is also a soon to be mama!

    In the meantime, please share season 1 with your friends and family, and with anyone else who might benefit from what we've shared so far.

    If you have any questions, comments, or you have an idea for something you'd like to see us cover on Season 2, you can reach us at narcpod@gmail.com.

    16. The Neglectful Narcissist
    May 14 2024
    After a short, unplanned break (which we will explain in the next two episodes), the girls are back, and this time we are talking about Neglectful Narcissism.

    Being in relationship with a Neglectful Narcissist comes with unique challenges, especially around feeling valued and appreciated, and how lacking these things leads to a feeling of being on the sidelines of your own life.

    15. The Communal Narcissist
    Mar 29 2024
    In this episode, the girls continue their not so mini series on 'types' of Narcissism, and take on Communal Narcissism.


    Listen along and learn about this type, which is just about opposite from the Malignant type. Last week, we delved into behaviours which are much easier to spot, most of the time. This week, we are talking about the complexities around doing the right thing, for the wrong reasons, which is synonymous with this type.

    Stick with us over the next few weeks as we wrap up this series; we hope it helps you deal with the narcissists (or narcissistic traits) in your life.

    14. The Malignant Narcissist
    Mar 22 2024
    In this episode, the girls continue their miniseries on 'types' of Narcissism, and take on Malignant Narcissism.


    Listen along and learn about this type, which is incredibly different from both the Grandiose and Covert types. Last week we learned a lot about Covert Narcissism, which presents as an undercurrent of abuse and control. This week, we delve into behaviours which are much easier to spot, most of the time.

    Stick with us over the next few weeks as we wrap up this series; we hope it helps you deal with the narcissists (or narcissistic traits) in your life.

    13. The Covert Narcissist
    Mar 15 2024
    In this episode, the girls continue their miniseries on 'types' of Narcissism, and take on Covert Narcissism.
