HERself
As women and mothers of young children, it can be easy to compare ourselves to others. But your life isn't supposed to look like hers! Being your best self means standing firm in your decisions and always being willing to grow with a purpose. Are you wanting more ease in your marriage? Or more enjoyment as a parent? Are you looking for a strategy to the health challenges you have been facing recently? Do you feel like you have been staring at a stranger in the mirror since becoming a mother? Abby and Amy get vulnerable with topics around partnership, motherhood, health, and self improvement by interviewing authors, therapists, experts and everyday mothers. Our conversations will meet you with solutions and solidarity as you find a life path that feels aligned for you.

286. Is It Being Defensive or Is It Narcissism? With Dr. Jaime Zuckerman
*trigger warning, abusive relationships*
We feel it’s important to have open and honest discussions about heavy topics in this safe space that is the HERself podcast. In today’s episode, we will be asking the hard questions about narcissism with Dr. Jaime Zuckerman, licensed clinical psychologist and expert in narcissistic abuse. Dr. Jaime will help us understand the difference between a person with Narcissistic Personality Disorder, narcissistic tendencies, or defensiveness. If you think you may be a child of a narcissistic parent, Dr. Jaime shares ways to navigate that relationship. And if you’re the friend of someone you feel may be in an intimate narcissistic abusive relationship, Dr. Jaime has some insights on how to be a supportive, available friend.
Love bombing - sounds great, but is it really a good thing? Dr. Jaime will give us the details of love bombing and why you should be wary of this tidal wave of infatuation. All of the information Dr. Jaime shares with us today is eye opening and important to hear. Whether you’re in the dating world or a committed relationship, you’ll be given the tools to prevent getting into a narcissistic relationship, how to identify if you are in one, and know how to get out.
