Summary
Are you an empath, and do you tend to fall for people with high narcissistic traits? If so, this episode is for you. An empath will find it difficult to set boundaries with a narcissist, considering they feel drawn to healing others. An empath can sense other people's emotions and their wounds. Considering narcissists are very wounded, an empath can get caught up in their false beliefs and misunderstandings. Empaths assume everyone has empathy and would appreciate the compassion of others. This is just not so when it comes to narcissists. In this episode, Lisa A. Romano, Codependency and Narcissistic Abuse Recovery Coach, helps us understand why a narcissist will fear a healed empath.
