Guest Bio: With over twenty-five years of dancing experience and several championship titles under her belt, twice Emmy nominated professional dancer Cheryl Burke first discovered her love of dance at the age of 4 taking ballet lessons and performing throughout the San Francisco Bay area of California. At age 20 Cheryl rocketed to stardom as the star of ABC’s surprise hit television show, Dancing with the Stars becoming champion twice, with NFL superstar Emmitt Smith and 98 Degrees singer Drew Lachey.   In 2015, Cheryl starred alongside Joe Jonas, Ciara, Nicole Scherzinger, and Marlon Wayans in NBC’s I Can Do That, a variety show that challenged celebrities to live outside their comfort zones. In 2020, Cheryl teamed with Backstreet Boys superstar and former DWTS partner AJ McLean to host the iHeart Radio produced podcast, Pretty Messed Up. Cheryl currently has her own podcast, Burke in the Game with the streaming giant and top podcast producing company, iHeartRadio. In the spring of 2008 Cheryl opened her first of several dance studios, the highly successful Cheryl Burke Dance. In early 2011 Cheryl’s biography Dancing Lessons: How I Found Passion and Potential on the Dance Floor and in Life was released. The book addresses topics that shaped Cheryl throughout her life from the childhood abuse and abusive relationships she lived through to harsh criticisms of her weight and body in her early twenties.   Guest Information: Instagram: cherylburke Twitter: @CherylBurke YouTube: @CherylBurke What's your attachment style?

Wow, this discussion on "Navigating Narcissism with Dr. Ramani" was incredibly enlightening! Dr. Ramani's insights into dealing with narcissism were both informative and practical. https://www.slideshare.net/PrimeButcherWrap It's truly eye-opening to learn about the different aspects of narcissism and how it can impact both individuals and relationships. The emphasis on setting boundaries and practicing self-care really resonated with me. Sometimes, it's easy to get caught up in trying to please a narcissistic person, but Dr. Ramani's advice to prioritize our own well-being is a powerful reminder. https://www.houzz.com/pro/prime-butcher_wrap/

Thank you for the viewpoint on Plan B. I am living alone for the first time in my life at 58 years old. Left my 33-year marriage to a narcissist. I am learning to love my peace and Plan B.

Sincerely. I don’t think everyone was saying shut up. Or blaming her…But they saw her as unsympathetic. And she still won’t admit that she was, like others, possibly attracted to her perceived wealth and the glitz, and was ok with going on n a ride… but she got conned. I would have like to hear what her part is in this….she said she looked at that for herself. Also, the trainer who was apart of this story left. Rachel had seen signs of issues with moment and still plopped down her credit card. Not knowing how much would be charged?! That’s not reliable. I’m glad she could sell her story write a book and get restitution. I hope others did too. I don’t glorify Anna. She is a criminal and a crook.

I have found you very enlightening on narcissists but I wonder why no one ever discusses when your child is a narcissist. It's always about a spouse or a parent but never a child.
