Short YouTube #shorts video (Rebecca Zung) featuring a brief conversational transcript about negotiating with narcissists. The speakers note that narcissists view things in black-and-white and that once triggered they cease to be reasonable; the clip asks how to disarm them and make them easier to work with.

How do you disarm them and make them easier to work with?
