In Part 2 of this conversation, we move from identifying narcissistic traits in a boss to navigating the complex relationship without losing yourself. Merry Brown raises the question so many people are afraid to ask: How do I get my narcissistic boss to meet expectations without abandoning my own boundaries and sanity? We explore the importance of mental differentiation and I unpack how narcissistic leaders often draw others into subtle “relational enactments.” If you’ve ever felt pulled in, worn down, or confused by a leader who leaves you doubting yourself, this episode offers clarity—and a way through. If you are interested in a consultation or seeking virtual therapy services, Dr. Mazzella is accepting new patients.
