How to Disarm a Narcissist in Conversation

If you’ve ever walked away from a conversation feeling spun, rattled, or subtly controlled, this episode is for you.

Drawing directly from my experience as a trial lawyer, I break down the exact strategy I use in court to disarm manipulative and narcissistic behavior—without escalating, over-explaining, or losing your footing. You’ll learn how to stop their momentum, respond in a way that gives them nothing to grab onto, and use one powerful phrase that instantly puts you back in control of the conversation.
