On today's episode Jamie and Guy welcome a special guest (and longtime friend of Jaime) Kristy Gaisford LCSW to discuss narcissism. They discuss how being in a relationship with a narcissist can be incredibly difficult and damaging to one's mental and emotional well-being. Narcissists often exhibit clinical characteristics such as an inflated sense of self-importance, a lack of empathy, and a preoccupation with fantasies of success, power, and attractiveness. They may also exhibit manipulative and controlling behavior, gaslighting, and emotional abuse. The constant need for admiration and attention can leave their partners feeling emotionally drained and neglected. Additionally, because narcissists tend to see themselves as faultless, they are unlikely to take responsibility for their actions or make meaningful changes to improve the relationship.

On this week's episode, Jamie and Guy discuss the basics of codependency. Codependency in relationships refers to a dynamic where one person enables or supports negative behaviors in their partner, sacrificing their own well-being for the sake of the relationship. This can lead to a cycle of dysfunction where both partners become overly reliant on each other, leading to unhealthy codependent behaviors such as neglecting personal responsibilities, making decisions based on the needs of the relationship rather than individual needs, and a lack of personal boundaries. Ultimately, codependency can lead to feelings of resentment, low self-esteem, and a decreased ability to function in healthy relationships.

Jamie and Guy discuss new year's resolutions vs. intentions in this week's episode. As we begin a new year, many of us may be thinking about what changes we want to make in our lives. Some may make resolutions, promising to lose weight, quit smoking, or save money. However, many of us may find ourselves struggling to keep these resolutions. Instead, we should focus on setting intentions. Intentions are different from resolutions in that they are not specific goals, but rather a mindset or attitude we want to adopt. Setting intentions allows us to be more flexible and open to change, rather than feeling like a failure if we don't meet a specific goal. Additionally, we can work on intentions throughout the year, rather than something we put pressure on ourselves to accomplish in a short period. So, let's start the new year with intentions to better ourselves, rather than resolutions that may hold us back 💛 We hope you enjoyed this episode - if you do, please take a minute to subscribe and leave a review on Apple Podcasts:) Thanks so much!
