Summary

What really makes someone a narcissist, and why is it so hard to spot the red flags when you’re the one in the relationship? In this episode, Chalene Johnson mixes storytelling with real talk about intuition, manipulation, and how predators can fool not just their victims but everyone around them. From DIY headboard projects gone sideways to a Hulu documentary that exposes chilling patterns, you’ll hear why it’s so important to trust your gut and let your closest friends call out what you might not want to see. If you’ve ever second-guessed yourself about a partner, or worried that AI and dating apps make it easier for bad actors to fake their way in, this conversation will give you perspective and protection.

The number of text messages, the number of emails, the number of people on my team right now who are waiting for an answer from me should give me anxiety. However, I'm only one person and I can only do one thing at a time. And at the moment, you are the most important person. And so I'm going to have this little chat with you. I'm going to tell you about my

0:21.1

day and why it is everyone can wait and why it is everyone is probably annoyed with me right now

0:28.8

because I'm just ignoring everybody's text messages. And this is what I do when I have to finish something.

0:34.3

I had a project that had to be completed today. Why? Why was there a

0:38.9

deadline that had to be met? Because my brain said it had to be met. It was an itch that had to be

0:48.5

scratched. And that itch started on Saturday. On Saturday, I watched a TikTok of this guy doing a DIY project. And I,

1:01.7

boy, I'll tell you what, I love, love watching DIYs on TikTok on Instagram. I love them.

1:09.1

I love seeing people transform their whole entire apartment

1:11.6

in one weekend. I love watching the start to finish. I love seeing people who I'm like,

1:31.0

you're like, I could totally do that if I had the time or I could totally do that if I needed to or I could

1:36.1

totally do that if I wanted to. Well, I enjoy doing DIYs and I decided that I would make the time to do it.

1:47.8

I see this DIY on Saturday.

1:51.5

This guy had taken pool noodles, right?

1:55.4

Like the styrofoam pool noodles and he had made, he'd taken a cabinet and he had placed pool noodles side by side

2:03.3

and then covered them with this like velveteen material and put them on the inside of the

2:08.8

cabinet and then mirrored it and he made this absolutely stunningly beautiful kind of

2:14.3

a little bar cabinet, if you will, and it had a place where he put in lined containers

2:22.5

for wine bottles, glasses that would hang upside down. It was absolutely stunning. But I saw those

2:29.4

pool noodles and I'm like, that's it. I had been working on our bedroom in the new place that we're living in in Miami.
