In this conversation with Tony Overbay of the Virtual Couch podcast, Dr. Finlayson-Fife talks about living with a narcissistic spouse AND the frustrating pursuer-distancer dynamic common to many couples.

-How to function in a relationship when your spouse has narcissistic traits or tendencies.
-Where you are vulnerable when living with or loving someone who won't self-confront or change.
-How to make sense of and address the experience of feeling more invested than your spouse.
-How to grow in your capacity for an open hearted relationship if you tend to stay arm's length.
-Understanding attachment or relational styles (such as being “clingy”, or “walled off” in relationship) and how to grow into a more self-sustaining and relational position.
