Self-Help Gurus: Growing Up in a Dysfunctional Family Makes You a Target for Their BS
Manage episode 437913183 series 3589271
This week on You're Not Crazy, I chat about why I loathe the Tony Robbins of the world and why you need to be careful about being the target of charismatic people who want to exploit you. Growing up with parents affected by borderline or narcissistic personality disorders can distort our sense of self and intuition, making us prime targets for re-traumatization by these so-called empowerment experts. We'll explore the deep-seated impact of a dysfunctional upbringing and how it leaves us susceptible to being pulled into manipulative relationships as an adult.
