In this eye-opening episode, Rebecca exposes the hidden tactics narcissists use to manipulate, control, and sabotage you — from covert insults and gaslighting to gift-giving traps, holiday sabotage, and the dangerous “dangling carrot” of future faking. Learn how to recognize these psychological weapons, reclaim your power, and stop falling into their emotional traps for good. Discover the Narcissist’s Playbook — the exact methods narcissists use to confuse, dominate, and control you. Rebecca Zung breaks down how narcissists manipulate emotions, twist reality, and keep you trapped in their toxic cycle. You will learn: How narcissists weaponize gift-giving to insult, control, and create guilt. The 9 most common narcissistic insults that destroy your confidence and independence. How gaslighting works — and the subtle ways it makes you doubt your memory, judgment, and sanity. Why narcissists ruin holidays and special occasions just to keep the attention on themselves. The meaning of the “dangling carrot” tactic — how they promise love, change, or rewards they never deliver. What future faking looks like in relationships, workplaces, and negotiations. Why narcissists act kind or generous only when it serves their image or control. How to protect your mindset and use leverage to shift the power dynamic back to you. Rebecca Zung draws from her powerful S.L.A.Y. Negotiation Method (Strategy, Leverage, Anticipate, You) to show you how to outsmart manipulation and take back control of your life, confidence, and peace. 👉 Get your FREE “Crush My Negotiation Prep Playbook”: https://winmynegotiation.com/?el=YT 👉 Download your FREE “Doc the Narc” Cheat Sheet: https://docthenarc.com/?el=YT 👉 Get your FREE “Phrases for Disarming Narcissists” Guide: https://disarmthenarc.com/?el=YT 👉 Get my book Slay the Bully: How to Negotiate with a Narcissist and Win: http://slaythebullybook.com/?el=YT 🌐 Connect with Me 💥 Website: https://www.rebeccazung.com 📘 Facebook: / rebeccazung 📸 Instagram: / rebeccazung 🎥 YouTube: / @rebeccazungesq 💼 LinkedIn: / rebecca-zung-6753893b 🐦 X (Twitter): / rebeccazung 🎧 Podcast – Negotiate Your Best Life: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast... 💬 Join My Free Facebook Group: / narcissistnegotiators Learn more about your ad choices.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
