🎙️ Episode 21: The Narcissistic Cycle of Idealize, Devalue, Discard

On this week’s episode of The Love Clarity Podcast, I’m talking about a cycle that feels like magic at first but slowly shatters your sense of self:

The narcissistic cycle: idealize, devalue, discard.

It starts with intense connection.
They say you're their soulmate.
They mirror your words.
They make you feel seen in a way you didn’t know was possible.

And then
💔 The warmth turns cold
🧊 Affection disappears
🗣 You’re told you’re “too much,” “not fun anymore,” “too emotional”

And just like that, they vanish or stay and punish you with silence.

In this deeply personal episode, we explore:
🧠 How love bombing confuses attention with intimacy
🚨 The signs you’re in a narcissistic cycle and why it’s so hard to leave
🫂 What your longing is really trying to tell you
🌿 The truth about healing: only you can break the cycle

If you’ve ever chased the version of them from the beginning, blamed yourself when it changed, or wondered how you became unrecognizable to yourself, this episode is for you.

You're not broken
You're not naive
You're just ready to stop performing for love that was never real
