Fight, Flight, Freeze or Fawn?
Let’s play never have I ever…never have I ever woken up one day and “randomly” felt super unfulfilled…dissociated from my environment, unexplainably moody…borderline bed rotting and felt like, what is life, what am I doing and what is the point of all of this?

The ‘N” word.
How do you know you’re not a narcissist? Did you know narcissism has a spectrum and that some, if not all people have tendencies, whilst others demonstrate at least five of the “special me” traits and meet the diagnostic criteria for the disorder? On this episode we unpack a real life story to see how we show up as narcissists with self-fulfilling interest, and explore the different moving parts of what narcissism is and what it looks like.
