I Interviewed Real Narcissists... What They Admitted Terrified Me (ft.Mark Vicente)

Filmmaker and former NXIVM member Mark Vicente returns to discuss his new documentary, The Narcissist's Playbook, using both his experience exposing NXIVM and years of research into narcissistic personalities to explain why destructive leaders across cults, abusive relationships, and even public life often follow the same psychological pattern. Drawing from his own journey through multiple spiritual movements before becoming one of the key figures who helped bring down Keith Raniere, Mark explores how idealistic, empathetic people are especially vulnerable to manipulation. He reflects on the emotional aftermath of discovering just how calculated Keith Raniere's deception had been and how that realization reshaped his understanding of evil.Click here to watch on YouTubeFind and support Mark!Donate to & watch “Narcissist’s Playbook”:  https://www.narcissistsplaybook.com/IG: https://www.instagram.com/markvicente/Our Costa Rica Vacation has sold out!
