Real talk: How do you quit falling for dangerous charmers, manipulative narcissists, or men who only reveal their true colors after you’re already invested? Welcome to Part 2 of my mind-blowing conversation with Dr. Gad Saad: Evolutionary Behavioral Scientist, best-selling author, and relentless unraveler of human behavior. We go ALL IN on the psychology of self-sabotage, how to finally take ownership of your choices, and why your “type” might be holding you back. In this unmissable second half, we dissect self-serving bias, breaking destructive patterns, and how to stop being your own worst enemy. Plus: what is “Alpine Divorce” (and why is it blowing up right now!), what the heck is the dark triad, the evolutionary roots of psychopathy, sperm wars, why men AND women cheat, and how your bundle of traits determines lifelong happiness. It’s not just about finding the right partner: It’s about understanding YOURSELF and protecting your heart before it gets broken (again).
