You can show love, you can hold love, but it doesn't mean that you have to accept abuse or mistreatment.
The holidays can be a magical time, but if you’re dealing with a narcissist, they can also be incredibly draining. In this episode of The Relationship Recovery Podcast, hosts Kierstyn Franklin and Tiffany Denny dive into strategies to help you navigate the season while protecting your mental and emotional well-being.
They kick things off with some humorous yet insightful examples of narcissistic behavior from popular holiday movies, setting the stage for a deeper discussion on what narcissism looks like in real life. Kierstyn and Tiffany break down the traits of narcissists and why the holidays can amplify their behaviors. They share practical tips like setting firm boundaries, using the gray rock method to minimize conflict, and prioritizing self-care to maintain your sanity.
One standout moment is when they explain the difference between covert and grandiose narcissists, highlighting how even seemingly self-deprecating comments can be a form of manipulation. They also emphasize the importance of not engaging with irrational behavior, reminding listeners that it’s okay to step away and take a breather.
For those who might still have a narcissist in their life due to family dynamics or other reasons, Kierstyn and Tiffany offer realistic advice on managing these relationships without sacrificing your own peace. The episode wraps up with an invitation to their 'Finding Joy in a Difficult Season' on-demand retreat, which provides additional support and expert guidance on healing and self-discovery.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to reclaim their joy and protect their energy during the holiday season.
