084 Navigating Life with a Narcissist: Essential Strategies
In this episode of The Observing I, we explore the complexities of navigating relationships with narcissists, whether they’re romantic partners, family members, or colleagues.
Narcissists can leave us feeling emotionally drained, manipulated, and doubting our own reality - but it doesn’t have to be this way.
Join me as we dive deep into understanding narcissistic behaviour, the emotional toll it can take, and most importantly, practical strategies to protect your mental health. We’ll cover setting boundaries, avoiding power struggles, and balancing empathy with self-care.
Drawing on philosophical insights like non-attachment and therapeutic approaches like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), this episode offers both practical advice and deeper reflections to help you regain control and emotional resilience.
And, of course, there's the usual sponsor, which is my book "The Observing I: A Guide to Living a More Authentic Life". You can buy it on Amazon here - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Observing-Guide-Living-More-Authentic-ebook/dp/B0D54FV5D5/
Much love,
