In this eye-opening episode, Ross Rosenberg introduces his groundbreaking Human Magnet Syndrome Workbook and unveils his powerful "Alpha Narcissist Theory."Drawing from decades of clinical experience and deep psychological insight, Rosenberg explores the rarely discussed dynamic that occurs when two narcissists enter a relationship—a battle of control, manipulation, and dominance. He explains how, in these high-conflict partnerships, one narcissist inevitably emerges as the more dominant figure—the Alpha Narcissist—while the other assumes a more submissive, enabling role, even if both exhibit narcissistic traits.This compelling theory sheds new light on how narcissistic relationships don't just implode—but can actually stabilize when a clear hierarchy is established.Consider subscribing to Ross Rosenberg's/Self-Love Recovery Institute's new Patreon Subscription, where you can access exclusive content, insights, and services. https://www.patreon.com/RossRosenbergSLRIatreon Recharge with David KoChats with Kevin Bacon, Chelsea Handler, Jordan Chiles, Common and Sheryl Lee RalphListen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the showABOUT ROSS ROSENBERG Ross Rosenberg, M.Ed., LCPC, CADC, is a psychotherapist, educator, expert witness, and celebrated author.

Ross Rosenberg and Jerry Weiss discuss codependency and its effects on identity and family dynamics. Jerry, a recovering codependent, shares how codependency impacted his self-esteem and happiness. They introduce Murray Bowen's family systems theory, highlighting how interconnected family behaviors influence individual identities and can perpetuate issues like codependency and narcissism across generations, illustrated by the concept of "family system Wi-Fi."The hosts also explore self-differentiation, the process of separating one's identity from family influences, which is often resisted in dysfunctional families. They use analogies like a thermostat and escape velocity to describe the challenges of breaking free from unhealthy dynamics. The episode touches on the cycle of hope experienced by codependents in relationships with narcissists, who often neglect their own needs for validation.As the conversation unfolds, they stress the importance of self-focus and the potential loss of relationships during the journey of self-love and recovery. Jerry provides resources for support, including coaching and free training on his website. The episode concludes by encouraging listeners to reflect on their experiences and the systemic nature of their relational patterns, promoting healing and self-discovery.ABOUT ROSS ROSENBERG Ross Rosenberg, M.Ed., LCPC, CADC, is a psychotherapist, educator, expert witness, and celebrated author.

In this video, Ross Rosenberg elaborates on his "Humanization Trick" concept, shifting the focus from the manipulative tactics of narcissists to the role of individuals with Self-Love Deficit Disorder (SLD) or codependency in this dynamic. He explains that codependents unconsciously engage in the "Humanization Trick" by convincing themselves that their narcissistic partners deserve sympathy, compassion, and empathy, even in the face of abusive behavior. This self-deception arises from deep fears of abandonment, pathological loneliness, and core shame. Their dread of being alone and feelings of unworthiness lead them to rationalize their partner's mistreatment rather than confront the harsh realities of the relationship. This internalized trick ultimately keeps them trapped in toxic cycles, reinforcing their emotional dependency on the narcissist.Consider subscribing to Ross Rosenberg's/Self-Love Recovery Institute's new Patreon Subscription, where you can access exclusive content, insights, and services.ABOUT ROSS ROSENBERG Ross Rosenberg, M.Ed., LCPC, CADC, is a psychotherapist, educator, expert witness, and celebrated author.

In this episode, Brook welcomes back Ross Rosenberg, author of The Human Magnet Syndrome and The Codependency Revolution, to dive deeper into the concept of Self-Love Deficit Disorder (SLDD)—a groundbreaking reframing of codependency. Together, they unpack how early attachment trauma shapes relationship dynamics, leading many into repeated cycles of caretaking, emotional depletion, and entanglement with narcissistic partners. Brook and Ross explore the toxic push-pull that arises in high-conflict co-parenting and divorce, where unresolved SLDD patterns often collide with personality disorders. Through the lens of disengagement and strategic self-awareness, they offer insight on how to stop "wrestling with pigs" and begin creating clarity, calm, and lasting change.

In this touching episode, Ross Rosenberg delves into the essential principles of codependency recovery, which he calls "self-love recovery." With clarity, compassion, and empathy, he presents a compelling explanation for how individuals with self-love deficit disorder (codependency) can break free from their long-standing pattern of getting involved with destructive narcissists and instead embrace a life filled with abundant self-love.He emphasizes that while codependents, or Self-Love Deficient individuals (SLDs), are never to blame for the abuse they endure in relationships with narcissists, taking personal responsibility is essential to healing. Drawing on his Human Magnet Syndrome framework, he explains how SLDs are unconsciously drawn to narcissists due to deeply ingrained relationship templates formed during childhood.These factors create a powerful, unconscious attraction to narcissistic partners, who initially seem familiar and safe but ultimately lead to dysfunctional relationships. Ross highlights that SLDs often stay in these relationships due to pathological loneliness, core shame, and relationship addiction, despite the harmful impact on themselves and their loved ones. He encourages viewers to confront these inner forces, break free from the cycle, and cultivate self-love. By taking responsibility and committing to recovery, SLDs can overcome their self-love deficiency and achieve a healthier, self-loving life. Support the showABOUT ROSS ROSENBERG Ross Rosenberg, M.Ed., LCPC, CADC, is a psychotherapist, educator, expert witness, and celebrated author.

In this podcast, Ross Rosenberg delves into "emotional dysmorphia," a term he coined to describe the internalized, distorted self-perceptions often developed by those with Self-Love Deficit Disorder (SLDD), or codependency. Much like body dysmorphia, emotional dysmorphia involves pervasive feelings of inadequacy or being unlovable, which persist despite contradictory evidence and affirmations from others.Ross explains how these beliefs are reinforced through abusive relationships, particularly with narcissists, and gives insight into mechanisms like projection and projective identification, where individuals begin to see themselves through a distorted, negative lens. This concept is key to understanding SLDD, as it shows how pervasive feelings of inadequacy can perpetuate harmful relationship patterns.Ross emphasizes that with the right support, including his Self-Love Recovery treatment, it's possible to dismantle these negative beliefs and cultivate self-love.Support the show

For most 12-step groups, a chemical or substance is the culprit, but for others like CoDA, it is a pattern of behavior that creates chaos and unmanageability in their life.  In this video, Ross Rosenberg explains why CoDA has been flawed since its inception and continues to be so. Through a historical analysis of the organization, he shows how CoDA's “co-dependency” term originated from 1950s alcohol and drug treatment programs attempt to understand the partners of alcoholics or “co-alcoholics.” When the field shifted to “chemical dependency” as the catch-all term for all addictions, including alcohol, the term briefly shifted to co-chemical dependency. Having too many letters/words, it was almost immediately shorted to “co-dependency.” CoDA's step one identifies its co-dependent's primary out-of-control compulsion as trying to change or controlling people who are unwilling or unable to change. ABOUT ROSS ROSENBERG Ross Rosenberg, M.Ed., LCPC, CADC, is a psychotherapist, educator, expert witness, and celebrated author.

Similar to his previous videos on BPD (which have amassed 1.8 million views), he provides insights from his distinctive perspective as a mental health service provider with a one-of-a-kind intellect.A decade later, Rosenberg once again presents a heart-wrenching account of the horrifying realities endured by those who have suffered abuse at the hands of someone with borderline personality disorder.DISCLAIMER: This podcast does not aim to criticize the extremely challenging psychological condition known as BPD. Instead, it serves as a helpful resource for individuals who have been hurt, abused, and/or traumatized by those with this diagnosis. The intention is not to highlight the negative aspects of people diagnosed with BPD but rather to offer a valuable mental health resource for those who have experienced abuse from their loved ones who suffer from this disorder. Sadly, the unfortunate reality is that individuals with BPD often end up hurting the people they care about or hold dear.While I possess a considerable understanding of the disorder, I must clarify that I am not a specialist or an expert in its treatment. My expertise lies in working with individuals whom I classify as "Self-Love Deficients" (codependents) suffering from Self-Love Deficit Disorder (codependency). It is important to note that I do not represent individuals with BPD, nor do I make any attempts to do so.Instead, I am a psychotherapist specializing in offering mental health services to individuals who identify as SLDs (codependents) and those who have experienced trauma. My focus revolves around empowering individuals, facilitating their healing, and assisting them in breaking free from abusive relationships. You can witness this dedication in my book, "The Human Magnet Syndrome," as well as in my various videos and training resources.I want to clarify that my intention is not to cast blame on individuals with BPD but rather to provide support and guidance to my clients in breaking free from toxic and abusive relationships.

Definition: Performative caring, also known as pseudo-care, is when someone shows care for a secondary personal gain. It can be a form of pathological altruism, and can involve: Questions: 1. What does genuine nurture look/feel/sound like? How can you recognize the difference between genuine nurturing versus nurturing with a motive? 2. How can the preconceived notion that “women are nurtures” create unrealistic expectations for women in relationships? How do these expectations create false narratives and entitlement surrounding care, nurturing and feminine roles within relationships? 3. What role does attachment style play in a person's ability to nurture? Are there connections that can be drawn between attachment style, vulnerability and a person's ability to give and/or receive nurturing? 4. Is performance a byproduct of a lack of nurturing? What distinguishes the mindset of a nurtured person going into relationships vs the non nurtured individual? 5. Is the desire to be validated the driving force behind performative care? If so, could the same be said for the person receiving the so-called care? Are both individuals demonstrating a lack of self worth by seeking validation in different ways? 6. How can the concept of performative caring be seen in the context of social media influencers and celebrities who often promote charitable causes or social justice issues for personal gain or to enhance their public image? 7. Can performative care be a learned behavior from childhood experiences or societal influences? How does childhood trauma or neglect contribute to the development of pseudo-care tendencies in individuals? 8. In what ways can performative caring be harmful to both the individual exhibiting this behavior and the recipient of their supposed care? How does it impact genuine relationships and emotional connection? 9. How can individuals who engage in performative caring work towards developing authentic empathy and compassion without ulterior motives? Is it possible to unlearn pseudo-care behaviors and cultivate genuine care and nurturing instincts? 10. Is there a connection between performative caring and narcissistic tendencies or manipulation tactics? How can one differentiate between genuine care and manipulation disguised as care? 11. How does the concept of performative caring tie into the power dynamics within relationships, especially in romantic partnerships or professional settings? Can pseudo-care be a tool for control or manipulation in such dynamics? 12. What are the psychological motivations behind engaging in performative caring behaviors? How do factors such as insecurity, low self-esteem, or fear of rejection play a role in seeking validation through pseudo-care actions? 13. How can individuals identify and confront their own tendencies towards performative caring? What steps can one take to cultivate authentic care and empathy towards others without seeking personal gain or validation? 14. Is there a spiritual or philosophical perspective on the concept of performative caring, as explored by thinkers like Krishnamurti or Wayne Dyer? How do spiritual teachings emphasize the importance of genuine compassion and selfless service? 15. Can the practice of mindfulness and self-awareness help individuals recognize and overcome their tendencies towards pseudo-care? How can practices such as meditation or introspection lead to a deeper understanding of one's true intentions and motivations in relationships? 1. **What does genuine nurture look/feel/sound like? How can you recognize the difference between genuine nurturing versus nurturing with a motive?** 2. **How can the preconceived notion that “women are nurturers” create unrealistic expectations for women in relationships? How do these expectations create false narratives and entitlement surrounding care, nurturing, and feminine roles within relationships?** 3. **What role does attachment style play in a person's ability to nurture?

They often have a hair-trigger temper, quickly becoming angry and defensive when their boundaries or needs are unmet. This can lead to explosive outbursts, hurtful words, and damaging behavior. In relationships, Threshold Reactors may become overly attached and clingy, seeking constant validation and reassurance from their partner, which can create a toxic cycle of codependency.

I talk with him about his new book, The Codependency Revolution: Fixing What Was Always Broken.  What is this monster called codependency that no one seems to understand? It is so hard to understand narcissism, and it is equally hard to understand codependency. In Ross's words, “I see codependency as a relationship problem, not an individual problem. A codependent is defined by their choice of relationship partners. To understand codependency, you have to understand pathological narcissism.” On this dive down the rabbit hole of narcissism, let's also dig into the concept of codependency.   https://www.selfloverecovery.com/

How can individuals cultivate a sense of agency and empowerment in the face of being chosen by God or their wounds? Zo's Talking Points: Throughout history, there have been individuals who have been perceived as "The Chosen Ones," selected by a higher power or destiny to fulfill a specific purpose or mission. From prophets and spiritual leaders to innovators and visionaries, these chosen individuals have captivated the minds of people around the world. But what does it truly mean to be chosen by God, or by your unhealed wounds? In the works of Dr. David R. Hawking MD, Swami Sri Yukteswar, Yogananda, Ross Rosenberg, and Eckhart Tolle, the concept of being chosen is explored through the lens of enlightenment, spiritual growth, and the healing of emotional wounds. The question arises: would one choose enlightenment over healthy romantic love? Can the pursuit of spiritual enlightenment lead to alienating consequences in relationships? The idea of being chosen by God or by one's wounds brings forth a dichotomy between divine destiny and personal trauma. Are the chosen individuals more healed than most people, or are they simply guided by their unhealed wounds towards a higher purpose? Is healing a lifelong process, or can God intervene and heal emotional wounds in an instant? In the realm of relationship dynamics, pursuing enlightenment can lead to a disconnect between partners. When one partner embarks on a spiritual path, the other may feel left behind or misunderstood. Three ways in which relationship dynamics fall out of sync when pursuing enlightenment include communication barriers, differing priorities, and a lack of emotional connection. It is often said that one's spiritual path is constructed via their unhealed wounds. But can solitude also be considered a form of spiritual self-care? Why do we disparage those who seek solace in solitude, viewing it as a form of weakness or avoidance? Is solitude a necessary part of the healing process, or is it simply a way to escape from the challenges of relationships and society? Distinguishing between a higher calling and an echoing wound can be a difficult task. How do we know if we are truly following our divine purpose, or if we are simply being driven by past traumas and unresolved emotions? Is it possible to transcend our wounds and embrace our true calling, or are we forever bound by the scars of our past? In conclusion, the concept of being chosen by God or by our unhealed wounds is a complex and multifaceted one. As we navigate the journey of spiritual growth and self-discovery, it is important to reflect on the motivations behind our actions and the impact they have on our relationships and personal well-being. Whether we choose enlightenment over healthy love, or seek solace in solitude, the path to healing and self-realization is a deeply personal and transformative experience. The concept of being chosen, whether by God or one's unhealed wounds, is a complex and multifaceted phenomenon that has intrigued scholars, theologians, and individuals across various spiritual traditions for centuries. The works of Dr. David R. Hawking MD, Swami Sri Yukteswar, Yogananda, Ross Rosenberg, and Eckhart Tolle offer profound insights into the nature of being chosen and the implications it has on one's sense of self, identity, and personal growth. The idea of being chosen by God has been a central theme in many religious and spiritual traditions. It is often seen as a divine calling, a purposeful selection by a higher power to fulfill a specific mission or destiny. This notion of being chosen by God can instill a sense of significance, purpose, and worth in individuals, as they believe they are part of a greater plan or purpose. On the other hand, being chosen by one's unhealed wounds is a concept that delves into the darker aspects of human nature. It highlights how our past traumas, unresolved issues, and emotional scars can shape our perceptions, behaviors, and choices in life. Being chosen by one's wounds can lead to a sense of victimhood, self-sabotage, and a distorted sense of self-worth. The questions of whether someone can be chosen by both God and their wounds simultaneously, and how to differentiate between a genuine calling and a manifestation of wounds, are crucial in understanding the complexities of being chosen. It raises the issue of discernment, self-awareness, and the importance of healing past traumas to uncover one's true purpose and identity. The impact of being chosen by God or one's wounds on one's sense of self-worth and identity cannot be understated. It can either elevate or diminish one's self-perception, depending on how it is interpreted and integrated into one's life. The correlation between being chosen and experiencing personal growth and transformation highlights the transformative power of embracing one's chosenness, whether by God or wounds, as a catalyst for healing and self-discovery. Societal expectations and norms play a significant role in shaping our perceptions of being chosen. The pressure to conform to certain standards of success, achievement, and validation can influence how individuals view their chosenness and the impact it has on their relationships with others. This can lead to feelings of isolation, alienation, and disconnection from those who do not share the same beliefs or experiences. The intersection of privilege, power, and oppression in the concept of being chosen raises ethical implications that must be carefully considered. Claiming to be chosen by God or one's wounds in a world that is diverse and interconnected requires humility, empathy, and a deep understanding of the implications of such claims on others. The role of forgiveness, self-compassion, and personal agency in the process of healing from being chosen by God or one's wounds cannot be overlooked. These elements are essential in navigating the complexities of chosenness and overcoming feelings of guilt, shame, or unworthiness associated with past traumas or divine callings. In conclusion, the idea of being chosen by God or one's wounds is a profound and thought-provoking concept that challenges individuals to explore their innermost beliefs, fears, and desires. It invites us to reflect on our past, present, and future selves, and to embrace our chosenness as a path to healing, growth, and self-discovery. By delving into the works of Dr. David R. Hawking MD, Swami Sri Yukteswar, Yogananda, Ross Rosenberg, and Eckhart Tolle, we can gain a deeper understanding of what it truly means to be chosen, and how we can navigate the complexities of chosenness with grace, humility, and wisdom. The concept of being chosen, whether by God or by one's wounds, is a deeply profound and complex topic that has been explored by spiritual leaders, philosophers, and psychologists throughout history. In the realms of metaphysics, spirituality, and psychology, the idea of being chosen carries with it a sense of purpose, destiny, and power. However, the implications of being chosen can vary greatly depending on the source of the selection - whether it be a divine entity or one's own unresolved trauma. Dr. David R. Hawking, a renowned psychiatrist and spiritual teacher, posits that being chosen by God can lead individuals to a heightened sense of responsibility and duty towards advocating for social justice and collective healing. The belief that one has been selected by a higher power can instill a deep sense of purpose and mission in individuals, motivating them to work towards creating a more just and equitable society. Conversely, being chosen by one's wounds can also serve as a catalyst for advocating for social justice, as individuals who have experienced trauma may be more attuned to the suffering of others and more driven to enact positive change. Swami Sri Yukteswar and Yogananda, prominent spiritual leaders in the realm of Hindu philosophy, explore the intersection of being chosen with ideas of destiny, fate, and free will. They suggest that while individuals may be chosen by God or their wounds for a specific purpose, they still retain the ability to exercise free will and shape their own destiny. The concept of being chosen does not negate the importance of personal agency and the power to make choices that influence one's path in life. Ross Rosenberg, a therapist and author specializing in codependency and narcissism, raises the question of whether being chosen by God or one's wounds can lead to a sense of superiority or elitism. The belief that one has been selected for a special purpose or mission can sometimes inflate one's ego and create a sense of entitlement. Similarly, individuals who have experienced deep wounds may develop a victim mentality that fosters feelings of superiority over others. It is important for individuals who have been chosen to cultivate humility and gratitude in order to counteract these tendencies and remain grounded in their purpose. Jiddhu Krishnamurti and Eckhart Tolle, spiritual teachers known for their teachings on mindfulness and presence, suggest that being chosen by God or one's wounds can be a catalyst for personal growth and transformation. The challenges and obstacles that come with being chosen can serve as opportunities for individuals to deepen their understanding of themselves, cultivate empathy and compassion for others, and ultimately achieve spiritual awakening and enlightenment. By embracing their experiences of being chosen, individuals can embark on a journey of self-discovery and inner transformation that leads to a greater sense of fulfillment and purpose. In conclusion, the concept of being chosen by God or by one's wounds is a multifaceted and nuanced topic that raises important questions about personal agency, responsibility, and the nature of purpose. By exploring the works of Dr. David R. Hawking, Swami Sri Yukteswar, Yogananda, Ross Rosenberg, Jiddhu Krishnamurti, and Eckhart Tolle, we can gain a deeper understanding of how being chosen can shape our lives, influence our relationships with others, and ultimately lead us towards a path of healing, growth, and enlightenme

If SpaceX's Mars missions are successful, we could have people on Mars within 8-10 years, he enthused, adding that at a distance of around 35 million miles, it's a six-month journey to get there. Zubrin believes that Mars will host a number of different colonies, which will have varying ideas about governance, social systems, and customs. These small city-states or settlements will house 10,000 to 100,000 people, he predicted, and be built with materials created on Mars.Zubrin envisions these Martian city-states competing for new immigrants around 50 to 100 years from now. There is potential for economic growth through colonization, including developing Martian resources into valuable products and creating infrastructure to increase land value, he continued. Zubrin added that inventions or patents could be another lucrative export for the Red Planet, as the technologically inclined colonists will be forced to innovate in many new areas to ensure their survival. As far as the goal of terraforming Mars so people could live outside of domes or breathe the air, he suggested that technologies 100 years in the future may have far better and faster solutions than the current idea of producing greenhouse gases and growing plants.-----------Psychotherapist (M.Ed.) and counselor Ross Rosenberg is an expert in codependency, narcissism, and trauma. In the latter half, he talked about how tales of monsters and vampires are metaphors for pathological narcissists and sociopaths -- people who walk among us, creating a normal and successful facade on the outside, but on the inside are actually heartless oppressors out to snare victims into their elaborate web of mental abuse and control. He suggested that codependent individuals (who often pair up with a narcissist) can be viewed as having a self-love deficiency disorder. Narcissists think they're not doing anything wrong, that they're entitled, and that everyone should give them what they want, while sociopaths are aware of their lack of caring and try to disguise it, he detailed.Those with narcissistic personality disorder can be selfish, vain, grandiose, possessive, and manipulative, he continued. Less than 1% of the population are sociopaths, while narcissism can be found in 5-8% of people. When these two disorders combine in the "sociopathic narcissist," you encounter someone who lacks empathy, seeks out the vulnerabilities in their victim, and then draws the emotional and financial lifeforce from them like a parasite, he explained. While there are some treatments for narcissism, he said there is no cure for a sociopath. "They don't have a core, so they don't have anything to reach," and they don't experience any inner turmoil when they do something wrong, Rosenberg noted. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/georgenoory/message

Ross Rosenberg discusses codependency/self-love deficit disorder addiction and how it fools people into believing their happiness is real. He explains how pathological narcissists exploit vulnerable codependents/SLD's by making them believe the initial false love can be brought back/rekindled."Drug Happiness" represents the codependent's belief that the Human Magnet Syndrome compelled "soulmate" experience is real and lasting. In truth, it is a temporary condition that disappears shortly after the beginning of the relationship. Pathological narcissists who are afraid of losing their SLD partner may try to re-enact the beginning of the relationship to make their partner believe in the drug happiness delusion. ABOUT ROSS ROSENBERG Ross Rosenberg, M.
