Welcome to Mad.In.Love! Today we will be discussing what narcissists misunderstand about love and joining me for this conversation is Dr. Les Carter, a therapist who specializes in anger management and narcissistic personality disorder, and host of the Surviving Narcissism podcast.

Join us as we dive into the topic of narcissists and love – is it even possible for these two things to coincide? If you were to ask a narcissist if they love their spouse, partner, child, parent, etc. they would answer “yes, of course!” but is their idea of love really love, or is it their own twisted idea of love? A narcissist’s idea of love revolves around being thought of highly, anything that makes them feel good, and having agreement and conformity.  None of these things have anything to do with real love.  We’ll talk about the 5 levels of relationship and what healthy love looks like.

I’m joined today by Sharmen Kimbrough, MA who works primarily with women and couples who are struggling with emotional and spiritual abuse and helps them take steps to heal. Her personal experience with trauma including emotional abuse, divorce, and single parenting has been a catalyst and drive for her work to bring hope and wisdom to others struggling to make sense of the pain and chaos in their life and relationships.

Are you living in a relationship where rage or silence cause you to return that behavior toward the person treating you that way? Have you been pushed so far, so many times, that you explode with anger toward the person pushing you? This is what we call reactive abuse. And its effects can transform you into someone you don’t recognize-someone you don’t want to be. 

In this episode, I’m speaking about reactive abuse with Dr. Lenne’ Hunt, my colleague at the MRC. Dr. Hunt has spent most of her adult life helping others navigate life’s challenges. She holds a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology and an M.S. in counseling. Lenne’ practiced as a licensed therapist for many years while also raising a generation of therapists through her role as an Associate Professor of Psychology. More recently, Lenne’ decided to take another “helping” path, laying down her therapeutic license in favor of life coaching and pastoral counseling. Dr. Hunt coaches from a perspective of an intimate relationship with the Holy Trinity and so believes that no person and no relationship is ever too far gone to be beyond hope. Dr. Hunt is the author of three books: The Fatherhood of God and the Sonship of Man, Prisoners of Hope, and One True Thing and has a teaching/discipleship ministry called Deep Unto Deep Ministries.
