Breaking Free From A Covert Narcissist

In this episode, I have a very personal conversation with my special guest, Laura Richards. Laura is an international podcaster, author, and expert on divorce, toxic relationships, and narcissistic abuse. Laura draws from her personal journey of breaking free from a 32-year marriage to a covert narcissist to share insights, information, and a realistic approach to post-divorce healing and rebuilding.

We discuss essential strategies such as having no contact, understanding manipulative behaviors such as love bombing, the gray rock method of communication, and the power of setting boundaries.

Laura also shares highlights from her best-selling books and offers practical advice for healing and personal recovery after abusive relationships. Whether you're dealing with an abusive ex, navigating co-parenting, or facing challenges in the workplace, this episode is packed with insights and support to help you reclaim your power and move forward.
