Episode Overview

  • Understanding the 'Humanization Trick' and its impact on codependents.
  • Recognising how childhood trauma influences adult relationships.
  • Learning to set boundaries with narcissistic partners.
  • Using techniques like 'observe-don't-absorb' to protect oneself.
  • Prioritising self-love and recovery over misplaced empathy.
You have to turn off empathy when you are leaving such harmful, diabolical, tyrannical people.
Ross Rosenberg takes you on a journey through the 'Humanization Trick' in this episode of The Self-Love Recovery Podcast. He shifts the spotlight from narcissists to individuals with Self-Love Deficit Disorder (SLD) or codependency, explaining how they often deceive themselves into showing unwarranted empathy and compassion towards their narcissistic partners. This behaviour, rooted in deep-seated childhood trauma, can sabotage their efforts to set boundaries and escape abusive relationships.
Ross shares practical advice on how to resist this self-deception, emphasising the importance of prioritising one's own well-being. He discusses techniques like 'observe-don't-absorb' to help SLDs protect themselves from manipulative tactics. Ross's warm and authentic approach, combined with his extensive experience, makes this episode a must-listen for anyone struggling with codependency or narcissistic abuse. By the end, you'll understand why it's crucial to turn off empathy temporarily to safeguard your path to self-love and recovery.
