If you’ve been on the receiving end of a female boss with malignant narcissistic-style traits then you’ll know how vicious and cruel it can feel when her ego decides you’re a threat. This ego does not hide….
It uses hierarchy to dominate, diminish and force you back into a position where she feels comfortably above you.

Fancied doing a little psychological profile of one expression of the mean girl archetype-with the ego, hierarchy and strategy underneath it laid bare 🔥

And these are only three…of course narc punishment can get far more insidious, but don’t underestimate the quieter tactics because they’re incredibly easy to explain away while you’re living inside them. You can spend a long time questioning whether each incident was really that bad while becoming on edge around the person responsible for them. Repeated punishment leaves an imprint and that is the signature of covert behaviour…it gives you very little to point at while the pattern tells you everything.

Your depth of sensitivity deserves discernment because not everyone deserves access to that level of care, understanding and empathy from you.
Pay attention to what people consistently show you, including the hostility you pick up beneath words and interactions that look completely innocent on the surface. Use that info to change the access they have to you. You can be deeply caring without endlessly giving to people who have already shown you they’ll misuse it ♥️

Being underestimated can give you a surprisingly clear view of someone.

I remember imposter syndrome hitting hard when I was newer to formal professional rooms. You’d hope being new would come with a bit of grace, but it doesn’t always work like that. Occasionally, someone gets a little too comfortable with where they think you sit.

And when you are already questioning or doubting yourself, it’s easy to give someone’s confidence more weight than it deserves.

People reveal quite a lot when they don’t think you’re someone they need to impress.
Let them be confident in their assessment of you while you’re still forming yours of them x

Passive aggressive swipes can get a lot of mileage from ambiguity. The more comfortable you become making people explain what they actually meant, the less room there is for them to take liberties and hide behind it x
