Summary
This week Carla Wilmaris is back with recurring guest, Paola and a special guest, Mac "The Therapist". We get deep this week, so grab some wine, a notebook, some tissues, whatever you need because we are going right into it. We are talking about Narcissism. We started the conversation with statistics and how 1 in every 16 Americans has been affected by someone with NPD, then broke down the differences between traits and the disorder. We went down the rabbit hole, and all I can say is buckle up, this is part one to a very necessary conversation we needed to have.
What You'll Hear:
- What is Narcissism? Or Narcissistic Personality disorder (NPD).
- How the rise of social media is feeding into the pandemic of narcissism
- A narcissistic individual is the opposite of authenticity, they are not able to see what they do to other people
- 80% of males show narcissistic traits
- Is it genetic or caused by upbringing?
- Nature vs. nurture
- Empathy is the ability to feel for others, narcissist can rationalize empathy- from the mouth out
- We now found a language for the term; people have been abused for years and now we have the words for it all
- The social media boom is breeding narcissistic tendencies
- The difference between traits and the disorder
- Plus, much more…
Quote/ Bible verse for this week:
- Isaiah 61:1- "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me because God has anointed me to bring good news to the poor… to bind up the brokenhearted.
