As a follow-up to our first episode on Narcissism, we decided to dive a little deeper into some common defense mechanisms that individuals with strong Narcissistic traits develop to avoid feelings of shame. We explain the nature of defense mechanisms and their impact on one's sense of worth over time. We also look into the pros and cons of counseling with a partner or loved one who exhibits these strong defense mechanisms. Ruth notes aptly that we break free when we learn to become the observer of these traits rather than absorbing them into our sense of being and worth. A Message from Love Itself offers a powerful and fitting response for healing and rising beyond the struggle. If you struggle with someone with strong Narcissistic traits in your life, you will find this episode both validating and liberating.
