64: Kristy's Love Story - Love After Loss & a BAD Narcissist Feb 06, 2023

Show notes

Kristy is a professor at the University of Alabama, and had two things that are so familiar to many of us. First, she had a wonderful marriage but lost her husband Dave to Glioblastoma too early.
When she was vulnerable, a man from 'high school' came back to sweep her off her feet at her most VULNERABLE time, and hear the story of what happened with the "Narcissist" - and how she got rid of him. Kristy started to date with our 'guard rails' around her, and met Greg, a wonderful man.
Listen to how she navigated her grief, her job promotions, the loss of her Mom, and a narcissist -- to finally come out on the other side to win in the love game. An inspiring story of courage and perseverance - and you don't always know what a narcissist is when you're IN IT.
