143 | How to break the cycle of attracting narcissists into your life as a jewelry designer Jewelry Business Academy Podcast

    • Entrepreneurship

This episode was a bit of a rollercoaster to record, but I genuinely believe it's a crucial one. Unfortunatly we had some sound glitches recording this one, but I decided to go ahead and hit publish.  Over the years, I've noticed a recurring pattern among jewelry business owners, designers, and artists—they often happen to be empaths. The tricky part? Many of these empaths have boundaries as flexible as a gymnast, unknowingly drawing individuals with narcissistic traits into their orbit.
Navigating this dynamic can be like trying to see through fog; it's tough. The impact, though, is real—it messes with your energy and influences how you show up in the business world.
So, buckle up for a deep dive into the intricate dance between empaths and narcissists, with a special lens on the vulnerability of artists, especially jewelry designers. We'll unpack different narcissistic types, explore manipulative tactics, and discuss the profound psychological toll on victims. The main takeaway? How to reclaim your power and break the cycle of attracting narcissists into your life.
P.S. Sure, we hit a few bumps in the sound department, but I decided to roll with it and share this episode anyway. It's too important not to.
