All human atrocities can be led and traced back to narcissism. Narcissism, as I see it, is immaturity and lacking in spiritual and psychological development.
What if the root of all human atrocities could be traced back to one common trait? In this episode of the 'Narcissism Recovery Podcast', Yitz Epstein dives into the profound impact of narcissism throughout history. He argues that narcissism, which he defines as immaturity and a lack of spiritual and psychological development, is at the core of many historical events marked by cruelty and suffering.
Yitz explores how ego-driven leadership has often thrived, only to lead to eventual downfall and societal breakdowns. Narcissistic leaders, he explains, might achieve short-term success by exploiting the weak and ruling through fear, but this approach is ultimately unsustainable. By comparing narcissistic leaders with compassionate figures like Mahatma Gandhi and Nelson Mandela, Yitz underscores the importance of empathy and soul-driven leadership.
This episode isn't just a history lesson; it's a call to action for leading with compassion and living authentically from the soul, fostering a connected and respectful humanity.
