Summary

In this episode, Krista welcomes Dr. Ramani Durvasula, a licensed clinical psychologist famous for her expertise in narcissism. On a mission to educate the masses about this high-conflict personality type, Dr. Ramani hosts the popular Navigating Narcissism podcast and has written several books, including the forthcoming, It’s Not You, available for preorder now. Dr. Ramani unpacks the complexities of dating in a narcissistic world and warns of the biggest red flags to look out for, such as 'approach avoidance' and 'future faking' behaviors. Krista + Dr. Ramani also connect attachment styles to narcissism and explain how to set boundaries around manipulative behavior. Sharing personal stories about her own experiences in narcissistic relationships, Dr. Ramani details the different types of narcissism you might encounter – from grandiose to vulnerable. In the age of social media, narcissism is an epidemic, but Dr. Ramani explains that healing is possible and fulfilling, healthy relationships are waiting on the other side of this work. We also talk about: Creating a compelling dating app profile Recognizing and coping with narcissistic behavior 'Gray rocking' + 'yellow rocking' tactics Narcissistic abuse + exhaustion Moderate narcissism Leaving toxic relationships The history of narcissism The importance of trauma-informed therapy Resources: Preorder Now: It’s Not You: Identifying and Healing from Narcissistic People Website: https://doctor-ramani.com/ Instagram: @doctor.ramani Podcast: Navigating Narcissism Sponsors: Act + Acre | Visit actandacre.com to take the quiz and see which scalp care system is right for you.
