Where can you listen?

Trying to understand narcissism, narcissistic personality disorder (NPD), narcissistic relationships, or narcissistic abuse? The Narcissism Decoder goes beyond identifying narcissism to explore why it develops, why people feel and behave the way they do, and how meaningful change is possible.

Unlike most podcasts, we approach narcissism with curiosity rather than condemnation. Understanding—not judgment—is the first step toward healing and change. Whether you’re trying to understand someone with narcissistic traits or recognize these patterns in yourself, this podcast offers compassionate, evidence-informed insights through a psychodynamic lens.

Through clinical insight, practical examples, and compelling stories, we explore the many dimensions of narcissism, including relationships, personality development, trauma, and the unconscious emotional forces that shape behavior. The goal is to transform the way you understand narcissism, moving beyond labels and stereotypes toward deeper insight, healthier relationships, and meaningful change. 

Join us as we explore the deeper psychology of narcissism—one conversation at a time.
