If you google, “what is a narcissist?” there are 128,000,000 results. It’s a hot topic, but sometimes the term is bantered about loosely without people really understanding the meaning. Narcissists are self-centered, egotistical, manipulative people who crave control. And at some point in your life, you may have encountered a narcissist at work without even realizing. Knowing the signs to watch out for and how to deal with one can make life a great deal easier. Dr. Sanam Hafeez is an NYC Neuropsychologist and Director of Comprehend the Mind. She’s joining the show today to address the many complex issues related to this personality type and what you can do if/when you encounter one.

In theory, we understand that channeling your inner superhero will help you get ahead both professionally and personally. However, in practice, confidence can sometimes elude the strongest of us. There’s a lot of advice about “not being afraid to ask for what you want” but how do you actually do that? How does one build the confidence to ask for what you want especially among uncertainty when you really don’t have control of an outcome? That’s why I invited career and life coach, Leigha May, to give us actionable takeaways for not letting impostor syndrome rule our days.
