We’re diving into a topic that many of you are eager to learn about. Now, imagine being on a rollercoaster, not just any rollercoaster, but one where the ups are few and the downs are many, and often quite triggering. That's a bit what it feels like. 

When you’re divorcing a narcissist, it's not just about legal battles; it’s an emotional journey where the usual playbook doesn’t always apply. The biggest challenges often come from the constant unpredictability and the emotional manipulation involved. Narcissists will often use tactics like gaslighting, where they make you question your own reality and sanity, or stone-walling, where they shut down communication to throw you off.

Today, we are looking at what you can do if you’re in this situation? We’ll be discussing strategies that include, gathering your support system, the importance of documentation, and how to stay as calm, as reacting emotionally only feeds into the narcissist's love of chaos and conflict. And perhaps most importantly, prioritizing your own emotional and physical well-being.

Divorcing a narcissist is not just about winning a legal battle; it’s about reclaiming your mind, your peace and your life.

With me today is Tracy A. Malone, an acclaimed international coach specializing in working with people who are dealing with narcissistic abuse. Tracy is the founder of NarcissistAbuseSupport.com, a global platform to support survivors of narcissistic abuse.
