When we examine the Victim Archetype, we look deep into our shadow to find the part of ourselves that looks at life through the lens of the victim. We tend to feel victimized by our relationships and circumstances in our lives. We unconsciously attract victimizers into our lives who adequately trigger us. In this episode […]
In January of 2013 I went to Costa Rica and wrote my book “Healing Narcissistic Abuse and Finding the True Self.” It has been available as an E book but not in print. By popular demand I have now launched this book in print. It is a pretty large book at 382 pages. Healing Narcissistic […]
One thing I find in my work is that some readers get the bright idea of subscribing the narcissist in their lives to my newsletter. This is a very bad idea and let me tell you why. First of all, in order to subscribe the narcissist in your life to any “opt-in” newsletter having to […]
