    Narcissistic Collapse: Why Their Breakdown Is Actually Your Breakthrough

    Is there such a thing as a "narcissistic collapse" — or is it just another trend designed to keep you scrolling at 2 AM looking for answers to why your relationship is the number one source of your frustration? Tony answers an email from a listener who keeps seeing videos promising that 2025 will be "the year of the narcissistic collapse"—the moment when the mask finally falls off, and everyone sees the truth. Cosmic justice would finally be served, and he would immediately feel a sense of relief, and either his partner would now become the person he'd always dreamed of, or he would undoubtedly find his soulmate within minutes after the collapse. And they would ride off into the sunset together. Tony breaks down the email line by line and unpacks everything from emotional immaturity and projection, the danger of couples therapy with the narcissist, to the continuing trap of trying to give your partner an epiphany. But the real conversation is about what narcissistic collapse actually is — and more importantly, what it isn't. Here's what the internet won't tell you: A narcissistic collapse isn't a sign of their progress. It's a sign of yours. They're not collapsing because they've changed. They're collapsing because you have — and the system that kept them emotionally afloat is breaking down. In this episode, you'll learn: - Why asking "Am I the narcissist?" almost always means you're not - The difference between reactive abuse and actual instability — and why therapists often get it wrong - How your vulnerability becomes an "attack surface" in emotionally immature relationships - What the research actually says about narcissistic injury, decompensation, and collapse - Why your growth equals their loss of control — and your calm equals their panic - David Schnarch's theory on differentiation, and his Four Points of Balance that make real change possible - How to stop selling yourself on a destination of hope and start building the vehicle that will truly take you where you need to go If you've ever scrolled through narcissism content at 2 AM looking for answers, this one's for you. 00:00 Introduction and Episode Overview 00:38 Listener Email: A Muse for Self-Discovery 01:00 Defining a Muse in Everyday Life 01:55 Listener's Struggle: Emotional Immaturity and Narcissism 02:28 The Narcissistic Collapse: Fact or Fiction? 02:51 Listener's Background and Marriage Issues 03:30 Therapy and Self-Doubt 03:51 Emotional Immaturity's Impact on Vulnerability 04:06 The Epiphany Trap and Anxious Attachment 04:35 Couples Therapy Pitfalls 05:18 The Role of Social Media in Coping 19:45 Reactive Abuse and Emotional Safety 28:01 The 5-4-3-2-1 Countdown Technique 29:09 Understanding Narcissistic Collapse 30:08 The Origin and Impact of Narcissistic Injury 30:39 The Role of Boundaries in Narcissistic Collapse 31:21 Emotional Immaturity and Defensive Structures 36:13 The Process of Differentiation 37:51 The Importance of Self-Validation 38:26 The Narcissistic Collapse as a Sign of Your Progress 44:10 Selling the Destination vs. Building the Vehicle 47:12 The Reality of Transformation and Healing 52:10 Final Thoughts and Encouragement Women navigating emotionally immature relationships: come join Tony's private women's Facebook group.

    Dick Cheney died four weeks ago, but his dark legacy lives on—quite literally—at Guantanamo Bay. The human rights lawyer Joshua Colangelo-Bryan was among the first attorneys to enter the notorious prison in 2004, and what he found there shattered every official justification for its existence. The “worst of the worst”? Most detainees were never even accused of acting against America. Many were simply sold to the Americans for bounties. The sophisticated interrogation program? Techniques copied from Chinese and Soviet methods designed to extract false confessions, not intelligence. In his new book Through the Gates of Hell, Colangelo-Bryan tells the story of his unlikely friendship with Jaber Mohammed, a Bahraini detainee who spent years in captivity for the crime of being an Arab man in the wrong place (Afghanistan) at the wrong time (post 9/11). Released without apology or compensation—just a form asking him not to “rejoin” organizations he'd never belonged to—Jaber now lives in Saudi Arabia with four children, focusing less on bitterness and more on those rare moments when American guards showed him unexpected kindness. As the Trump administration revives the “worst of the worst” rhetoric against immigrants and once again sends people to Guantanamo, Colangelo-Bryan's account is a warning from recent history: demonize a racial or religious group, and you will inevitably destroy innocent lives. The gates of hell have once again been opened. Will they ever be closed? This is a public episode.

When you control your focus, you decide what stays in your awareness and what gets rejected. Most people don't realize they've given control of their focus to their emotions or outside circumstances — which means they unconsciously create more of what they don't want. How to Control Your Focus with Will and ImaginationEvery time you worry, doubt, or replay old fears, your imagination is engaged — but in the wrong direction. By learning to control your focus, you can use imagination intentionally to create what you actually desire. Will directs your attention, imagination builds new ideas, and memory supports the reality you want to experience. The more you practice focusing on what you want — abundance, ease, opportunity — the faster your outer world aligns with your inner vision. Reprogram Your Memory and Create FreedomYou can even reimagine painful memories. When you control your focus,  you strip old experiences of their emotional authority and create new empowering meanings. Your focus determines your perception — and perception creates your results. Start using your higher faculties to imagine only the good, the beautiful, and the successful. It's your will, your memory, and your imagination — use them to build the life you want. Episode 693 – Control Your Focus, Increase Your Income Episode 631 – The Law of Polarity and the Power of Decision Episode 380 – The Reality of Belief HERE’S THE TRUTH:YOUR BUSINESS ISN’T BROKEN. YOUR MINDSET IS. You’ve built something real. You’ve got clients, revenue, maybe even a team. But every morning, you wake up feeling like you’re pushing a boulder uphill — working harder for smaller wins, watching others leap ahead while you grind in place. This December, I’m opening the doors to The Elite Mind — a proven daily practice that rewires the mental patterns keeping you stuck in the feast-or-famine cycle, and transforms your relationship with success from the inside out. We’ll strip away the self-sabotage, the fear of your own potential, and the unconscious limits you’ve accepted as “just how business is.” You’ll discover why strategy alone never works (and what actually does), and walk away with the mental framework that separates those who sustain success from those who chase it forever. Ready to stop working harder and start thinking differently? CLICK HERE to find out more!

    Series: The Advent of ____Week 1 Title: The Advent of HopeMain Scriptures: Proverbs 13:12, Isaiah 40:1–5, Luke 1:30–32, Galatians 4:4, John 14:3, Romans 15:13Big Idea:Hope is not a wishful feeling—hope has a Name, perfect timing, and a promised future.Jesus is our Hope, our Living Hope, and our Coming King. I. Introduction — What Advent Really MeansAdvent = “coming” or “arrival.” Not just remembering Christ's birth but anticipating His return.Historically marked by fasting, reflection, and preparing room for Jesus.Weekly themes: Hope, Peace, Joy, Love.Hope is often the hardest to hold onto—even for strong believers.“Hope deferred makes the heart sick…” (Proverbs 13:12).Hope delayed makes the heart tired. Hope can feel risky or fragile. II. The Reality of HopelessnessMany feel “learned hopelessness”—after disappointment, unanswered prayers, and long waiting, the heart stops expecting anything to change.People do this spiritually the same way the dogs did in the study.BUT God does not want His children living in hopelessness.Isaiah was sent to speak comfort, forgiveness, and hope to weary people.Isaiah 40:1–5: A message of comfort, deliverance, and restoration. God is leveling valleys and mountains—He is preparing a way. III. Truth #1 — HOPE HAS A NAMEHope is not a concept; it's a person—Jesus.Luke 1:30–32: The angel reveals Jesus as the promised One tied to Isaiah's prophecy.Jesus is our Hope… our Blessed Hope… our Living Hope.Our hope is anchored not in circumstances but in who God is. IV. Truth #2 — HOPE HAS PERFECT TIMINGGod's timing is not Amazon Prime—but it's always right on time.Galatians 4:4 — “When the set time had fully come, God sent His Son…”The 400 “silent years” were not silent—God was preparing the world:Socratic method encouraged questions.Old Testament translated into Greek.Jews scattered across the world.Rome built highways and unified language.When conditions were perfect for the gospel to spread, Jesus came.God works the same way in our waiting—He aligns things we cannot see. V. Truth #3 — HOPE IS COMING AGAINAdvent looks backward and forward—Jesus will return.John 14:3 — “I will come back and take you to be with Me…”A future hope: resurrection, restoration, eternal life.Proverbs 13:12 (full verse): Hope fulfilled becomes a “tree of life”—a sign of healing and wholeness in Revelation.One day every longing will be fulfilled.Until then, we choose hope. VI. Closing — A Call to RespondGroup 1: Those far from God—hope is not in something; it's in Someone.Group 2: Believers carrying heavy burdens—Romans 15:13 prayer of overflowing hope.Hope is our posture, our anchor, our promise.“Our hope is not in desired outcomes—but in God Himself.”

    The history of stress started in 1936. Now, a little less than a century later, according to the "experts," stress is responsible for every mental and medical problem under the sun. Is this true? The problem might be that we are believing the "experts" more than God's Word. It is the negative things we believe about stress that cause it to be detrimental to our well-being, not stress itself. Stress is a challenge, but it is not a threat. Stress, if viewed rightly, is meant to be beneficial.

    Stop Treating AI Like an ERP Implementation - with Chris Gee

    The Dan Nestle Show

    Play Episode Listen Later Dec 1, 2025 83:19


    Companies keep approaching AI the way they approached every other tech rollout: install it, train on it, expect immediate returns. But AI isn't software. It's imperfect by design, doesn't follow a predictable implementation curve, and the gap between what leadership promised the board and what's actually happening is becoming a serious problem. In this episode of The Trending Communicator, host Dan Nestle sits down with Chris Gee, founder of Chris Gee Consulting and strategic advisor to Ragan's Center for AI Strategy. Chris has survived four career reinventions driven by technological disruption—from watching his graphic design degree become obsolete the day he graduated to now helping organizations navigate the shift to agentic AI. His motto, "copilot, not autopilot," frames the entire conversation. Chris and Dan dig into why AI adoption is stalling—because companies are treating transformation like a switch to flip rather than a capability to build. They explore the parallel to 1993's Internet boom and why the adoption curve is right on schedule despite executive frustration. The conversation gets practical: Chris shares how he built an AI agent named "Alexa Irving" for client onboarding, and they tackle whether doom-and-gloom predictions from AI CEOs are helping or hurting the people who actually need to use these tools. Listen in and hear about... Why the adoption curve for AI mirrors the early Internet The $17 trillion argument against AI replacing all jobs (hint: someone has to buy things) How prompting skills aren't going away Building agentic AI with guardrails: Chris's "Alexa Irving" experiment Why "copilot, not autopilot" is more than a slogan—it's a survival strategy The skills gap nobody's addressing and why we need more brains who understand AI, not fewer Notable Quotes "My motto is copilot, not autopilot. I wholeheartedly believe that we are going to make the most progress using AI in tandem—where humans focus on the things that we do well and we use AI for the things it does better than we do." — Chris Gee [04:19] "17 is $17 trillion—that's what the American consumer spends per year. 70 is the percentage of US GDP that represents. And zero is the amount of money that AI chatbots, LLMs, and agents have to spend." — Chris Gee [23:57] "Your ability was never simply in your ability to string together words and phrases, but to translate experiences or emotions and create connection with other humans." — Chris Gee [36:44] "It's not thinking and it never will be thinking. So if we understand that, then we understand it won't be thinking like a human." — Chris Gee [1:07:00] Resources and Links Dan Nestle Inquisitive Communications | Website The Trending Communicator | Website Communications Trends from Trending Communicators | Dan Nestle's Substack Dan Nestle | LinkedIn Chris Gee Chris Gee Consulting | chrisgee.me Chris Gee | LinkedIn The Intelligent Communicator Newsletter | chrisgee.me (sign up on website) Timestamps 0:00:00 AI Transformation: Hype vs. Reality in Communications0:06:00 Human Touch vs. Automation in Service Jobs0:12:40 Early Career Transformation & Adapting to Technology0:18:00 AI Adoption Curve: Early Adopters and Laggards0:23:30 Tech Disruption, Job Fears, and Economic Impact0:29:10 Prompting and Obstacles to AI Adoption0:34:45 Redefining Skill Sets & Human Value with AI0:40:45 Efficiency, Productivity, and Creativity with AI Tools0:46:20 Rethinking Work: Flexible Schedules & Four-Day Weeks0:51:39 Practical AI Use Cases: Experiment and Upgrade0:55:11 Agentic AI: Autonomous Agents and Guardrails1:01:29 Autonomous Agents: Oversight, Guardrails, and Risks1:08:15 AI Is Imperfect: Why Human Judgment Remains Essential1:14:16 AI Quirks, Prompting Challenges, and Adoption Friction1:19:41 Wrap-Up: Finding Chris Gee & Newsletter/Prompt Suggestions1:21:18 Final Thoughts & Episode Closing (Notes co-created by Human Dan, Claude, and Castmagic) Learn more about your ad choices.

    **Infinite Plane Radio Broadcast: November 23rd, 2025**This broadcast provided an analysis of current media narratives and political events, framing them as components of the broader **Psyop** Entertainment Complex designed to maintain a controlled worldview through a media duopoly, predictive programming, and reinforcement messaging.* **The Media Duopoly and Controlled Opposition** * The media operates via a duopoly: "Mainstream and alt-mainstream. But the two are triangulated against one another". * Pundits like Candace Owens, despite having the "number one podcast in the world", are seen as "controlled opposition". * Her role is to serve as a bridge, redirecting followers from questioning media (red pill) into specific political narratives (J pill). * "No, she got her start with Project Veritas. I mean, this is all just controlled opposition." * "She's a bridge from red pill to J pill where, yeah, these conspiracies aren't really true. The real truth is this." * "Candace Owens is leading people down well-paved rabbit trails."* **Charlie Kirk (CK) Event as a Staged Psyop** * The purported assassination of Charlie Kirk (CK) is viewed as a "staged **Psyop**" or "magic show". * The CK event was "likely planned, at least scheduled... in the mid-90s". * The narrative structure involves three phases: "predictive programming", "concurrent programming" (e.g., Charlie Sheen discussing JFK assassination on Joe Rogan just before the CK news), and "reinforcement programming" (Candace Owens dominating the topic). * "I think that politics... needs to be looked at as part of the **Psyop** entertainment complex." * "The assumption that people die in **Psyops**" is described as a "guardrail" that prevents people from viewing media fakery in its entirety. * "So now the dominant narratives on this topic are saturated with the alt media perspective clashing with the mainstream. And that's it." * "But the assumption that they're dead is sort of a, it's a guardrail."* **Political Theater and Societal Control** * The entire political system is characterized as "bread and circuses" designed to give "subjugated populations" an "illusion of power". * The political horseshoe split maintains division, enforced by provocateurs. * QAnon is described as a "cult" involving a "syncretic blend of Christianity and politics". * "I think MAGA's on the way out. I think it served its purpose." * "It's clear to me... that there's such a heavy-handed control over worldview that it constitutes a monopoly..." * "I mean, you have to recognize the effectiveness of this systemic media fakery and manipulation of worldview through the fabrication of historic events."* **Predictive Programming and Monolithic Symbolism** * Historical events are forewarned through "predictive programming," acting as "product placement for future fake events". * This manipulative worldview is described as "monolithic," drawing parallels to the monolith in *2001 Space Odyssey*. The monolith represents "the ubiquitous worldview that is a merging of real and fake. Hyper-reality...". * The concept of a "design authority" or "Saturnian presence" is linked to figures like the Man in Black in *Westworld* and Ed Harris's character in *The Truman Show*, who controls time and space. * "I look at it as product placement for future fake events." * "I think what he's giving away with that movie is that we are being moved into this space odyssey." * "The design authority, the meta-scripters, they are the Saturnian presence here." * "If you can plot a timeline and plan in advance 30 years prior to major historically significant events, you control time."* **Color and Archetypal Symbolism (Green/Joker)** * The color green is frequently associated with class warfare and left-wing revolutionary archetypes. * The Wicked Witch in *Wicked* is described as "100 antifa coded", rebelling against a "fascist wizard of oz". * The Joker archetype is highlighted as a "class warrior" linked to "kill the rich" themes. * "So the Joker is accosted by some rich guys on a subway, and he kills them. And he's now a hero." * "The green beret, the Joker, kill the rich, kill the CEOs. This is like a building theme..."* **The Nature of Reality and Disbelief** * The mainstream perspective often equates to the information provided by systems like "Wikipedia or chat GPT". * True skepticism is based on "informed disbelief," achieved by examining all sides, rather than "low information belief". * Psychological operations are only effective because "empathic people weren't being triggered and emotionally manipulated". * "The reason she's number one is she's propped up. I don't think it's organic." * "If your sole frame of reference is your seat and what the magician tells you to lo

If ever the world needed a King to rule it is now. Reality dictates that while men and organizations strive to establish a one-world government, to resolve world problems, it is a counterfeit attempt to usurp the will of the Father: "Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven."

    Can you reformulate a product to reduce sodium by 25% without losing the rich savoury profile consumers expect? And even if you can, will shoppers actually buy it?  The UK's high fat, salt and sugar (HFSS) regulations have sparked the biggest wave of reformulation the food industry has seen in decades - but success requires far more than technical prowess.  In this episode of the Food Matters Live podcast, recorded at our Ascot event, three speakers reveal the complex reality of making food healthier while keeping consumers coming back for more. And there's another challenge: just as companies invest millions reformulating to current benchmarks, there are further changes in the works.  How can industry maintain momentum when the regulatory goalposts keep moving, and 40% of shopping baskets still come from HFSS products?

    In this episode, we investigate the disappearances and violent encounters that point to something far darker than folklore. From unexplained vanishing points to witnesses claiming they saw non-human shapes watching from the treeline, these cases blur the line between true crime and cryptid terror. Are these missing persons victims of nature… or predators that shouldn't exist? We break down the sightings, the evidence, and the chilling patterns behind the mysterious creatures, monster legends, and unsolved crimes that authorities refuse to explain.

    In this episode, we sit down with astrologer and psychological guide Meli Neubek for a grounded, insightful exploration of how astrology can deepen self-understanding and offer a clearer lens on the collective shifts unfolding as we approach 2026. Meli shares her personal journey into astrology, how she blends evolutionary and psychological frameworks, and why self-inquiry, intuition, and agency matter more than ever in times of rapid change. Together we unpack the major planetary movements shaping the coming years, the importance of staying curious rather than fatalistic, and how each of us can navigate emerging cycles with clarity, responsibility, and authenticity.Time Stamps(00:00) Episode Teaser(00:32) Opening Conversation(07:12) Introducing Meli Neubek(10:08) Meli's Journey and Personal Growth(24:57) Why Meli Resonates with Astrology(38:53) The Whole Sign House System(39:40) Different Astrological Perspectives(40:42) Integrating Astrological Knowledge(42:19) Astrology and Human Experience(48:57) 2026 Astrology Reading(53:50) Pluto's Transition from Capricorn to Aquarius(01:09:44) Neptune Entering Aries: Dreams into Reality(01:14:41) Uranus Moving into Gemini: Shocking the System(01:16:29) FAA Disruptions (Uranus in Gemini)(01:17:32) Historical Context of Uranus in Gemini(01:18:34) Future Predictions and Technological Advancements(01:20:14) Uranus and Pluto: Historical Impacts(01:24:19) Nervous System Overload and Practical Advice(01:26:02) Astrological Insights for 1981-1982 Births(01:27:20) Summary of 2026 Astrological Events(01:36:03) Yerasimos' Astrological Reading(01:41:27) Joel's Astrological Reading(01:50:02) Closing ThoughtsGuest LinksDownload Meli's 2026 Guide to Neptune + UranusCelestial Curiosities PodcastBook a reading with Melihttps://www.instagram.com/melineubekConnect with UsJoin our membership Friends of the TruthRise Above The Herd Take the Real AF Test NowDiscover Your Truth Seeker ArchetypeWatch all our episodesConnect with us on TelegramFollow us on InstagramAccess all our links

    Today's episode opens with a quiet charge, Murphy & Keen circling the walls of money to see what's solid and what's only painted there. Our two very different economists argue over whether banks summon credit from nothing or simply pass along what was saved, each holding a different candle to the same dark machinery. As the conversation rolls, the familiar ghosts of failed forecasts and brittle theories drift about, reminding us how easily economics slips away from the world it tries to explain. By the end, it feels like a steady march through the uneasy heart of the financial system. Still human, still searching, still trying to make sense of the noise.

    “If I really spent $4,000 a month, I'd have a villa and a problem.”Having Markeiz back on Discover Vietnam felt like picking up a conversation we never really finished the first time. When he first joined me back in 2020, I was recording out of my bedroom, praying the iPhone wouldn't ruin the audio. This time, we were sitting in a full podcast studio — lights, cameras, a technician, the whole lot. It made me think about how much this show has grown, and how much life in Vietnam has shaped both of us.This episode wasn't about headlines or clickbait. It was about getting past the noise — especially the noise created after his CNBC video “Living on $4,000 a Month in Vietnam” went viral. That title got people talking, but most of the reactions didn't include the actual context. And nothing drives me madder than a story taken out of context.I wanted to let him tell the full story himself — the chaos that brought him to Vietnam, the visa confusion everyone goes through, the reality behind that $4,000 figure, and why life here works for him. What I loved most is that the conversation wasn't defensive. It was honest. It was grounded. It was two people who love living in Vietnam but also understand the complexities and privilege that come with that.Key Talking Points1. The Real Story Behind the “$4,000 in Vietnam” Headline2.

    EconoFact Chats regularly hosts a panel of distinguished economic journalists to take stock of key issues affecting the U.S. economy. Since the panel last met in September, the U.S. has been through the longest government shutdown on record, the Supreme Court began hearing arguments on the legality of the Trump administration's tariffs, and the Democrats outperformed expectations in a few elections. This week, EconoFact Chats welcomes back Binyamin Applebaum of The New York Times, Larry Edelman of The Boston Globe, Scott Horsley of NPR, and Claire Jones of The Financial Times to discuss these events, as well as recent shifts in consumer sentiment, Fed independence, inflation, and the impact of tariffs and lower immigration on the economy.

    When Nava Kavelin (host of Podcrushed) lost weight at 16, the shift in how the world treated her was immediate and jarring. She went from being invisible to having 10 boys aggressively pursuing her. She joins Nicole to unpack the complicated resentment of suddenly becoming "visible" to people who previously looked right through you.They get into why reciprocity is the bare minimum for a good relationship, the misery of dating someone long-term who won't commit, and how soap operas like Passions warped their brains into thinking it's okay to chase people who don't like you. Nava also shares the time she downplayed her Baha'i faith for a Southern Baptist boy who turned out to only be interested in converting her.Plus, the shocking research she uncovered at the UN about how media impacts girls of color - they are sexualized as young as 3 years old, and unchecked access to porn is normalizing violence for teenagers.Meanwhile, Nicole attempts to connect with the youths, and recounts the wild, slightly racist routine she saw at Criss Angel's Las Vegas show.Heads up: This episode contains spoilers to Netflix's You.Check out Nava's new book, Crushmore at simonandschuster.com/books/Crushmore/Penn-Badgley/9781668077993Watch this episode on our YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/@WhyWontYouDateMePodcastSupport this podcast and get discounts by checking out our sponsor:Squarespace: Head to squarespace.com/DATEME to save 10% off your first purchase of a website or domain using code DATEME.Follow:All Links: linktr.ee/whywontyoudatemeTour Dates: linktr.ee/nicolebyerwastakenYouTube: @WhyWontYouDateMePodcastTikTok: @whywontyoudatemepod Instagram: @nicolebyerX: @nicolebyerNicole's book, #VERYFAT #VERYBRAVE: indiebound.org/book/9781524850746This is a Headgum podcast.

    We're back with a new listener AMA, and this one goes deep into the heart of what so many of you have been asking about lately: healing, forgiveness, energetic boundaries, and what it really means to stay aligned when life throws you lessons you never asked for. As always, it's just me and my wife, Alyson Charles Storey, sitting down at home to explore your questions with honesty, humor, and a whole lot of spiritual perspective.In this conversation, we unpack what forgiveness actually looks like—especially when the other person never takes accountability. We talk about how to work with resentment, rumination, and intrusive thoughts without spiritually bypassing or numbing ourselves. You'll hear us dive into the difference between emotional processing and feeding old mental loops, the role of humility in resolving conflict, and why “letting go” is often more about moment-to-moment surrender than a single breakthrough.We also get into questions around shamanic perspective, karmic lessons, and how to discern when an experience has alchemized into wisdom versus when it's still asking for attention. Along the way, we touch on rituals, inner work, and the spiritual tools we each turn to—plus plenty of personal stories, laughter, and real-life marriage moments.Thank you to every listener who submitted a question. Your curiosity and vulnerability shape these episodes, and we're grateful to walk this path with you. Keep the questions coming for the next AMA.
