Have you ever walked away from a conversation thinking, Wait, what?!? How did that get turned around on me? 😵‍💫

Or found yourself replaying an argument, wishing you'd explained yourself just a little better?

If you're dealing with an emotionally immature person or a narcissist, more explaining won't help.

Listen in as I share 3 teachings that will help you so much! I know because I've been in these convos where my brain feels like it's a tangle of confusion.

These 3 things will help you stop getting pulled into exhausting conversations and start protecting your peace.

You'll learn why logic doesn't work with someone who's focused on winning, how overexplaining gives them more leverage, and why the longer you stay in the conversation, the more likely you are to leave feeling drained.

I also help you if you sometimes think: "Wait, am I raising a narcissist?" or "Wait, am I the narcissist?"

This is a good one to listen to and to share. We all interact with emotionally immature people and emotional vampires (those people who suck our energy!)

 

In this episode you'll learn:

  • Why you can't "win" an argument with an emotionally immature person or narcissist.

  • The hidden reason they keep changing the conversation.

  • How overexplaining works against you.

  • Simple phrases that help you end unproductive conversations.

  • The signs you've been pulled into an endurance test instead of a healthy discussion.

  • How to respond differently with teens that will teach them emotional maturity. (aka "how to not raise narcissists" 😆)

 

If you've ever left a conversation feeling confused, defensive, or emotionally exhausted, this episode will help you recognize what's happening and give you actual things to say that will help you feel more confident and less confused or reactive.
