In today's Narc Free Man Podcast, Phillip Dugas breaks down the real reason men attract female narcissists — and why you will always attract women at the level of the man you currently are.

You'll Learn: • Why men attract narcissistic women and emotionally manipulative partners • How trauma, low boundaries, and identity wounds make men vulnerable • What high-value, emotionally stable women actually look for • How to stop attracting chaos and start attracting feminine peace • Masculine structure, purpose, emotional stability, and self-respect • The habits that build a man women trust • The behaviors that repel toxic women and attract healed women • How becoming better automatically upgrades your relationships
