You’ve got questions. We’ve got answers.

In this episode we host our very first Q & A Lab where we answer your questions about high conflict people. We focus on three questions:

Narcissists who get it backwards What do you do when they turn it around and accuse you of being the narcissistic HCP?
Bosses who complain and blame e-v-e-r-y-d-a-y) What do you do to get your HCP boss to stop?
Parents who blame and make extreme accusations, such as kidnapping What do you do in the aftermath?

Listen in as we answer your questions by identifying whether it’s a high conflict behavior or not, providing insight into the behaviors, and making suggestions for handling them.

We’ll be doing a monthly Q & A Lab. Submit your questions anytime!
