Taryana Rocha is from Manaus, Amazonas, is 40 years old, is married and has 7 cats. She works as a psychoanalyst and educator on issues related to pathological narcissism. The daughter of a narcissistic family system, she traded her professions as a flight attendant and dance teacher for digital entrepreneurship.
