Covert Narcissism: How to Spot Them & Protect Yourself

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. In this hard-edged breakdown, Bizzie Gold separates envy vs jealousy, exposes the covert narc's tactics of projection, deflection, splitting, and walks through triangulation, gaslighting, and the idealization-to-devaluation cycle.
