Episode notes

Triangulation in vulnerable narcissism involves using passive aggression and talking through third parties to manipulate situations in their favor. By planting victimized seeds in others, the narcissist portrays themselves as the victim and garners sympathy, turning the actual victim into the villain. This behavior can lead to conflicts and disruptions, especially in workplace settings where one vulnerable narcissist can negatively impact an entire team.

Today’s episode is a masterclass in narcissism.

If you want to know how to protect yourself from a narcissist, you first have to know how to identify one.

You’ll learn the top 10 personality traits to look for, how to handle a narcissist in your life (that you can’t avoid), the difference between ‘love bombing’ and infatuation, and a whole lot more.
