It's a significant test of emotional and mental resilience when someone you love attacks you through gaslighting, projection, moral superiority, subjective morality, innuendos, and storytelling, all of which downplay their actions and focus entirely on your reaction to their behavior or words. Loving those with high conflict personality means you are investing your emotions, time and energy toward a relationship wish a person who is not as invested as you are. In time, you will notice the one-way nature of the relationship. Through an enormous painful event, if you are lucky and wise, you will let go of those whose false mask, grandiosity, and tremendous insecurity prevent them from taking accountability for how their narcissism affects those who love them. In this podcast episode, you will hear from Lisa A. Romano Breakthrough Life Coach and Award Winning Author, creator of the 90 Day (12 Week ) Self Love Recovery Breakthrough Program, share how when you speak to a narcissist with certain words, sentences and phrases, you successfully hold onto your energy and prevent them from dragging you onto the dark stage in their minds.

Empathy — we all think we know what it means, until we're in a relationship where it's missing. Covert narcissists are often skilled at sounding emotionally intelligent. They can say the right words, mirror emotional language, and even cry on cue — but something still feels off. That's because what they offer isn't real empathy; it's a performance. In this episode, we explore the difference between true empathy and intellectual mimicry, revealing how covert narcissists can talk the talk while leaving you emotionally starved. You'll hear real-life examples of how this plays out, how it erodes your sense of self, and why it's not your fault that their words never seem to reach your heart. If you've ever asked, “Why do I still feel so alone when I'm not alone?” — this episode is for you.

En este mensaje tratamos el caso de un hombre que «descargó su conciencia» de manera anónima en nuestro sitio www.conciencia.net y nos autorizó a que lo citáramos, como sigue: «Mi esposa es muy vanidosa. Se la pasa publicando fotos de ella en las redes sociales, y a mí no me gusta. Obviamente recibe muchos “Me gusta” de hombres amigos de ella, y la verdad es que no sé qué hacer. ¿Me pueden dar un consejo?» Este es el consejo que le dio mi esposa: «Estimado amigo: »Al parecer, usted piensa que su esposa está buscando la atención de otros hombres... [y] cree que ella publica esas fotos porque es vanidosa, pero nosotros creemos que hay otras explicaciones posibles. »Las redes sociales son un foro de interacción relativamente nuevo, pero ya hay muchas teorías que intentan clasificar a sus diferentes tipos de usuarios (sin incluir a los usuarios comerciales y los que anuncian productos). Hay además estudios diseñados para descubrir si hay una correlación entre ciertos comportamientos y tipos o trastornos de la personalidad de los usuarios en las redes sociales. »Se ha especulado que el narcisismo puede identificarse conforme a los tipos de selfies que la persona publica. ¿Son selfies de ella misma principalmente, o son más que nada de ella como parte de un grupo? Es posible que los narcisistas, que desean ser el centro de atención, sean propensos a publicar más selfies solos que formando parte de un grupo. »Si bien el deseo de acaparar la atención puede ser causado por el ensimismamiento y la vanidad,1 también puede resultar de la inseguridad y la ansiedad. Los que están muy interesados en el número de seguidores que tienen y en cuántos “Me gusta” reciben tal vez dependan de esos números para evitar sentir que están solos y que nadie los quiere. »... Lo que más le conviene a usted es ser quien [estimula a su esposa] de manera positiva. Dígale que le gusta su peinado o que le encanta su mirada. Ayúdela a sentirse segura en el amor que le muestra y en la relación que tiene con ella. Demuéstrele con palabras y con los hechos lo mucho que la valora. »Ofrezca sacar fotos de su esposa, tanto con usted como con otras personas. Asegúrese de que ella siempre tenga a mano una buena cantidad de nuevas fotos que incluyan a otros. »Quien depende de la belleza física para atraer la atención y admiración tendrá que afrontar, tarde o temprano, el paso del tiempo. Es que el tiempo pasa y con frecuencia la belleza se pierde. Hay un proverbio bíblico muy conocido que dice así: “Los encantos pueden engañar y la belleza no dura, pero la mujer que honra al Señor es digna de alabanza.”2 En otras palabras, el honrar a Dios y ver la vida desde el punto de vista de Él es lo que de veras hace hermosa a una mujer, aunque sea anciana y tenga arrugas. »A su esposa le hace falta que usted perciba y admire su belleza interna. Cuando observe que ella está siendo amable o generosa, dígaselo. Ayúdela a enfocarse en sus propias cualidades internas y no tanto en su belleza externa.» Con eso termina lo que Linda, mi esposa, recomienda en este caso. El caso completo puede leerse con sólo pulsar la pestaña en www.conciencia.net que dice: «Casos», y luego buscar el Caso 728.

Karen Read's NARCISSIST Playbook: Blame Everyone Else | 12 Examples of Zero Accountability DESCRIPTION: PATHOLOGICAL BLAME-SHIFTING EXPOSED: In this psychological deep-dive, we examine how Karen Read has blamed literally EVERYONE except herself for John O'Keefe's death. From vast conspiracy theories to attacking grieving witnesses, Read displays textbook narcissistic behavior that mental health experts say reveals her guilt. The 12 most shocking examples of Read's blame game: Claiming the ENTIRE Canton Police Department framed her Accusing the Albert family of murder with zero evidence Blaming O'Keefe for "making her" drink and drive Attacking EMTs for "contaminating" the scene Accusing the snow plow driver of "destroying evidence" Claiming her own friends "misremembered" her confessions Blaming the judge for "bias" when rulings don't go her way Attacking the media while hiring a PR firm Accusing prosecutors of "hiding" non-existent evidence Blaming alcohol for her "not remembering" killing O'Keefe Claiming witnesses "conspired" to frame her before the body was found Even blaming the weather for "confusing" the evidence Dr. Patricia Matthews, clinical psychologist specializing in personality disorders, explains how narcissists create elaborate alternate realities where they're perpetual victims. Read's inability to accept ANY responsibility - even for undisputed facts like her drunk driving - reveals someone incapable of admitting guilt. We examine how this blame-shifting strategy has backfired spectacularly with the jury, who've watched Read point fingers at everyone while refusing to testify herself. When you accuse dozens of people of conspiracy but won't answer questions under oath, credibility dies. The victim here is John O'Keefe, but to hear Karen Read tell it, she's the real victim of everyone else's lies. Classic narcissist.

When High Conflict Takes You By SurpriseLife can change dramatically when you unexpectedly encounter a person who demonstrates high conflict behavior. Bill Eddy and Megan Hunter from the High Conflict Institute in Scottsdale, Arizona, explore the unsettling experience of being blindsided by high conflict situations—whether in a new job, relationship, or family dynamic.Understanding the Impact of Unexpected High ConflictWhen high conflict behavior emerges unexpectedly, it often creates a destabilizing ripple effect. The initial confusion and self-doubt can leave anyone questioning their capabilities and judgment. This episode examines how these situations develop, from the early stages of confusion through the progression of mounting tension and isolation.Recognizing High Conflict PatternsThe most challenging aspect of surprise high conflict situations is their ability to create self-doubt in even the most confident individuals.

“I think my husband's a narcissist…” If you've whispered those words to yourself — in the dark, after another disconnected conversation, or mid-scroll through TikTok — this video is for you. We live in a culture quick to diagnose, quick to label, and even quicker to tell women to walk away. But what if the truth is more complex… and more hopeful? In this episode, I gently unravel the difference between a truly narcissistic partner — and one who is imperfect, avoidant, or simply different from you. I share the hard-earned truths I learned in my own marriage, and the lessons that thousands of women around the world are now living by. This is not about blame. It's about clarity. It's about reclaiming intimacy, polarity, and respect — with the partner you already have.

Adult Star and OnlyFans Creator Krystal Sparks didn't always live life wide open — but once she found a partner who was into swinging, hotwifing, and sex parties, the floodgates (and, well, everything else) opened. Suddenly, Krystal was in the orgy room at a sex club, living out wild fantasies with multiple men in front of her husband — and loving every second of it.We talk about how those experiences unlocked something primal in her, how she went from living in secret to thriving in the spotlight, and how that path led straight to OnlyFans and the Adult Industry. Krystal's story is proof that sometimes, the real glow-up starts in a sex club, with excellent lighting.This one's hot, hilarious, and full of big freak energy. You've been warned.ENJOY EP 178: "Freak Flag Flying" with Krystal Sparks.Watch the video version of the show on YouTube YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIuCkOl_XummXVdu1t3XOuQFollow Krystal SparksInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/pskrystalsparks (@pskrystalsparks)Follow the showInstagram: https://instagram.com/sexparty.fm (@sexparty.fm)Twitter: https://twitter.com/sexpartyfm (@sexpartyfm)Follow Dustin Instagram: https://instagram.com/dustinrybka (@dustinrybka)Twitter: https://twitter.com/dustinrybka (@dustinrybka)Sex Party with Dustin Rybka

When it comes to narcissism, there are physical signs that help you spot narcissistic behavior sooner rather than later. Narcissists often reveal their true nature through their eyes—cold, unfeeling, and devoid of empathy. This chilling stare is a red flag, signaling a lack of emotional connection and a potential for manipulation. According to FBI profilers, such individuals prey on those with high empathy, low self-worth, and a strong desire to please. Codependents, in particular, may overlook these warning signs due to blurred boundaries and a history of emotional neglect. If you've experienced cognitive dissonance in a toxic relationship, it's crucial to recognize these signs and prioritize your well-being. Understanding the dynamics of narcissistic abuse can empower you to break free from trauma bonds and embark on a healing journey. Take the first step towards self-discovery and recovery. Our codependency quiz can help you identify areas needing attention and guide you towards inner healing. ✨ Take my FREE Codependency Quiz

Guitarist Marc Ribot has established himself as one of the most versatile , distinctive, in-demand guitarists anywhere. He's played with Tom Waits, Marianne Faithfull, Elvis Costello, and dozens, maybe hundreds of others, and led his own bands that have touched on jazz, Cuban music, no wave, and more. But now, with his new album, "Map of a Blue City", we get another side of Marc Ribot: he sings. The album incorporates recordings made over nearly half of Ribot's life. Some of the songs were decades in the making, going from demos and home recordings in the 1990s to at one point in 2014 recording with his friend, the legendary producer Hal Willner, who died in 2020. Ribot had shelved the project several times, but the songs just wouldn't leave him alone. Finally working with producer and guitarist Ben Greenberg, they found was a way to reconcile the intimate recordings and previous choices – adding overdubs and taking things away. Ultimately, Ribot says “There are some hard truths and cold observations in these songs. I wanted the room to be small enough so that we couldn't turn away: but warm enough to feel like you're hearing it from a friend.” Ribot plays some of these tunes in-studio. Set list: 1. Elizabeth 2. Death of a Narcissist 3. Bella Ciao
