Decoding the Office Narcissist: My PODCAST RECORDING with Dr. Ramani Durvasula
Collaborating with The New School's Impact Entrepreneurship Initiative on a podcast dedicated to the impact space called Let’s Talk Impact has been incredibly rewarding. It's highlighted the incredible work being done to create positive change, but it's also driven home a crucial yet often overlooked point: self-care is essential for those making waves. This is why my recent conversation with Dr. Ramani Durvasula, a renowned psychologist specializing in narcissism, resonated so deeply. In today's world, where passionate individuals are pushing boundaries for good, the ability to navigate challenging workplace dynamics – especially those involving narcissists – becomes a form of self-care itself.
That's why I was so excited to interview Dr. Durvasula for our podcast. Her recent book, "It's Not You: Identifying and Healing from Narcissistic People" reaching the New York Times Best Seller list is a testament to the importance of educating ourselves on narcissism. In our fast-paced world, we're surrounded by these complex personalities, and understanding their behavior empowers us to navigate professional (and personal) relationships with greater self-awareness and protection.
Dr. Durvasula's expertise goes beyond mere explanation. She equips us with actionable strategies for dealing with narcissists at work, fostering healthier dynamics, and ultimately, protecting our well-being. Whether you've personally encountered a narcissist or simply want to be prepared, this conversation is a must-listen. Stay tuned for the full interview, and in the meantime, let's keep the conversation going!
