Back to EpisodesCan A Narcissist Change? A Segment of a Live Interview
Description
In this episode, I had a live interview with Tami from Ageless, the 50+ community, where we discussed the definition of narcissism, the concept of a narcissist revising history, and whether narcissists can change. We delved into various therapeutic approaches to help individuals with narcissistic traits become more tolerant and increase their frustration tolerance. I also reviewed the core features of a grandiose sense of self, including exaggerated self-importance, entitlement, need for admiration, lack of empathy, and fragile self-esteem. This episode provides practical insights and techniques for fostering growth and understanding in individuals with narcissistic traits, highlighting how addressing these dynamics can lead to healthier self-perception and self-worth.
