Understanding Narcissistic and Borderline Personality Dynamics - Behind the Scenes | Epi 121
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, I take you behind the scenes as I prepare for the class I teach on personality dynamics. Instead of a polished lecture, you’ll hear my real-time thinking — how borderline and narcissistic patterns overlap, where they diverge, and why people in narcissistic relationships so often bump into borderline dynamics without realizing it. This episode gives you a raw look at how I use theory, connect clinical ideas, and make sense of these intense personality styles as I work – and get ready to teach!
