Have you ever wondered if you might be in a relationship with a narcissist? Narcissism comes in many forms. Some obvious, others….not so obvious. Being in a relationship with someone with narcissistic tendencies can be emotionally draining and deplete your self-esteem, but hope is available. Today, I chat with relationship expert Joe Kort on how to recognize the signs and develop an exit strategy if that’s what you think you need. We also chat about what it means to come from a narcissistic family and shed light on lesser-known components of narcissism such as “narcissistic injuries” and “narcissistic defenses.”

We always give you the option for us to disguise your voice with our fancy editing software, so no worries there if you would like to remain anonymous. Or if you’re loud and proud, and you want to tell us who are as you share your question, that is fine too. We are also collecting story submissions as well.
