Episode 475: Dr. Ramani Durvasula: How Narcissists Hijack Your Mind and Why We Keep Falling for Them
Descripción del Episodio
Think narcissism only affects insecure or naive people? Think again. In this episode of Habits and Hustle, I talk with Dr. Ramani Durvasula who explains how narcissists manipulate even the most self-aware, high-achieving individuals.
We dive into why narcissistic relationships are so hard to leave, how gaslighting corrodes your self-trust, and the emotional price we pay for constantly managing toxic people. Whether it’s a partner, boss, parent, or friend, this episode is your guide to recognizing and protecting yourself from covert manipulation.
Dr. Ramani is a licensed clinical psychologist, bestselling author, and the internet’s go-to expert on narcissistic abuse. Her work has helped millions decode toxic dynamics through her YouTube channel, books like “Don’t You Know Who I Am?”, and expert commentary on major media outlets.
