 We’ve all heard the term narcissist, but what does it really mean? 

In this candid conversation, three life coaches get real about the traits, tactics, and traps that define narcissistic behavior. From the confusion and manipulation to the denial and blame-shifting, Desiree, Doree, and Michelle break down how narcissism shows up in romantic relationships, family systems, and even friendships. 

You’ll also hear how each of them has personally encountered these patterns and what they learned about self-care, boundaries, and reclaiming their power. 💡 

Spoiler: Not everyone who acts selfishly is a narcissist — but knowing the difference could save your sanity.
