Our guest today, Jodi Pavlock, is an author, certified Narcissistic Abuse Recovery Coach, whose life took an unexpected turn after years in a covert narcissistic relationship that slowly stripped away her sense of self.

After finally choosing herself and walking away, Jodi transformed her pain into purpose—writing her memoir Jekyll Can’t Hyde in just 30 days and dedicating her life to helping others recognize the signs of narcissistic abuse and find the strength to leave.

Today, she supports survivors around the world, guiding them through healing, rebuilding their identity, and reclaiming their power after abuse.
