The “I Don't Think We Talk Enough About...” podcast is a weekly conversation with wonderful guests exploring the issues that need more candid openness around me...
Send us a textIn this episode, I sit down with narcissism expert Helen Villiers to define what narcissism truly is. Does a narcissist know they’re a narcissist? What are the different types, and how does narcissism manifest in relationships? Helen breaks down how narcissism develops, why we all have some narcissistic traits (and when they’re actually healthy), and the lasting impact of growing up with a narcissistic parent.We also explore narcissism in romantic relationships - why we often repeat unhealthy patterns and how to break free. Helen sheds light on the damage of smear campaigns and, most importantly, offers game-changing advice for those dealing with a narcissistic partner or parent. Plus, we share resources to help you learn more and find the support you need.If you’re in a relationship with someone you think may be a narcissist or you feel your caregivers may have been then this conversation promises to bring much clarity.Helen Villiers links:Website: https://liberationacademy.co.uk/the-hub/Helen’s book: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/1399719238/ref=cm_sw_r_as_gl_api_gl_i_GT3Z2FSJ6YEKBTSAYWDF?linkCode=ml1&tag=helenkatherin-21Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/helenvilliersma?igsh=MWM0Mnl6Yzl0aWwzcg==Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/liberationthehub/Helen Marie’s links:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/h.e.l.e.n.m.a.r.i.e?igsh=MXVsZHZwcTl2Zmppdw%3D%3D&utm_source=qrChoose You: https://lnk.to/ChooseyouHelenMarie

Episode 36 | Copycats, Mirroring, Identity & So Much More (with Jennifer Cox and Salima Saxton) [VIDEO]
Send us a textPsychotherapist Jennifer Cox and relational dynamics coach Salima Saxton from Women Are Mad are absolutely brilliant! In this episode, I sit down with them both to explore the fascinating world of copycats.We delve into what’s beneath the behaviour, why copying can cause such a stress response in the person being copied and then look a little closer at the concepts of mirroring with regard to identity, fitting in, and belonging. This conversation touches on self-worth, vulnerability, and some uncomfortable truths around envy. I simply loved this discussion as Jen and Salima’s energy is so infectious - we had a lot of fun filming this so I hope you enjoy too. Happy listening.
