Tony takes the reins solo in this episode as he returns the favor of Julie hosting last week. Tony explains Julie’s quote of him saying, “Kids are little narcissists,” and talks about ego-syntonic vs. ego-dystonic behaviors in children. He then shares the importance of positive connections, the effects of childhood trauma on adult health, the impact of ADHD on familial relationships, and more. Listening to this episode will also reveal the correlation between behavioral issues and emotional immaturity, how to grow emotionally, and an interesting perspective on childhood development stages. Furthermore, it discusses the findings from a pioneering study on adverse childhood experiences (ACES) and their influence on adult lifestyle and health conditions. Tune in to understand ADHD better and to appreciate the incredibly powerful role of love and positive connection in our lives.00:00 Introduction and Recap of Previous Episode00:27 Understanding Narcissism and Emotional Immaturity00:47 The Impact of Labels and Self-Perception02:11 The Role of Empathy in Relationships04:18 Exploring the Concept of Egosyntonic and Ego-dystonic Behaviors06:44 The Connection Between ADHD and Emotional Immaturity07:05 The Importance of Self-Confrontation and Ownership09:01 The Healing Power of Connection10:25 The Impact of Childhood Trauma on Adult Health15:56 The Role of Love and Connection in Healing16:32 Understanding the Rabbit Effect and the Grant Study20:38 The Importance of Feeling Heard, Seen, and Understood24:24 Conclusion and Preview of the Next EpisodeHead to HTTP://love-adhd.com (http://love-adhd.com) to learn more
