Do You F*cking Mind?

What makes someone a narcissist? What's the difference between a covert and overt narcissist? and how, oh HOW, do you handle a relationship with a narcissist - particularly narcissistic parents and in-laws; This is what I'm diving into in this episode. 

Then I get into a listener question about whether or not to move cities to be with a partner when being mid-way through tertiary study. Specifically how to tell if you actually want to move for yourself and not just because your partner is somewhere you aren't.

On today's ep I go over what it means to be the bigger person, when it is good and when it is not helpful to your own peace of mind or mental health.
