My CEO whom I work closely with is a complete narcissist. When she speaks to me it’s so condescending and rude it’s making me sick. I thought I was hiding it well but apparently I’ve gotten to the point where I am visibly stressed. A colleague asked was I okay after our teams meeting yesterday. I want to quit but finding a job is difficult these days. Should I hire a coach or contact recruiters? What’s the best method?

A lot to unpack here. Would you feel the same if that was a male? All C suit (most all men) are extreme narcissists and maybe even sociopaths but that's considered to be acceptable. When women act in that manner in place of power, that's portraits as difficult and unacceptable.
Bottom line, market is hot right now, so if you have a strong book of business, you should be able to find acceptable role.

Leave, run, flee, walk away.
Finding a job is never easy, even in the best of labor markets, you can never land a job unless you decide to invest time and effort in the job search. You want motivation, just imagine how sweet that meeting would be when you tell her that you are off to better things

I need some help seeing how reasonable this is. I brought my partner to a work function and asked him if it was okay that we don’t have PDA (him touching my back for instance) in front of my coworkers because it makes me uncomfortable to have that in a work environment. He took it as me being ashamed of him and rejecting him. Is this an unreasonable ask from me?
