In a profound episode of "Founder's Story," host Daniel Robbins engages with Dr. Ramani Durvasula, a clinical psychologist and a New York Times best-selling author, renowned for her expertise in narcissistic relationships. Dr. Ramani, who also serves as a professor, delves into the complexities of narcissism, a topic that resonates deeply due to its frequent misuse and the emotional weight it carries for many. Dr. Ramani begins by clarifying common misconceptions about narcissism, explaining that it involves more than just self-absorption or occasional arrogance; it is a pervasive pattern of behaviors that significantly affect interpersonal relationships. She outlines the two primary pathways to narcissism: one stemming from adversity and trauma in early childhood, and the other from excessive pampering and unrealistic expectations of special treatment.
