Covert narcissism hides behind shyness, false humility, and comparison. They may come off as a dreamer but the psychological mechanisms lurking behind the surface are far more sinister. If you’re a high-performer with a big heart, you’ve likely been targeted by people like this.

You’ll get the Top 10 ways to identify a covert narcissist, why they’re drawn to empathetic, overcommitted leaders, and how to confront the pattern without getting trapped in the victim narrative.What we cover: Covert narcissist traits and tactics • Why ownership is nearly impossible for a covert narc Why highly empathetic ( and distracted) leaders are a prime target Envy as the core driver How to cut off triangulation and bring truth to lightStructured, logic-based rewiring vs talk-therapy loopsIf this episode hits uncomfortably close to home, there’s no shame in choosing change.

 Acceptance isn’t always harmless—it can be a dangerous game with generational consequences. In this episode, Bizzie Gold takes you deep into the psychology, history, and hidden agendas behind normalization—the subtle (and sometimes coordinated) process by which ideas, behaviors, and even harmful patterns become “just the way things are.”From doctors prescribing cigarettes in the 1950s to the quiet shifting of infant developmental milestones, from porn addiction to the “new normal” of 2020—Bizzie unpacks how normalization can hijack your beliefs, prime your brain, and keep you stuck in labels that limit your potential.You’ll also learn why belief is the real gatekeeper of change, how to spot inorganic normalization campaigns, and the critical role of deviance in restoring personal sovereignty.
