Empaths vs Dark Empaths vs Sociopaths, The Dark Triad, and How to See The World and Yourself Correctly in These Complex Times

In this episode I explore the differences between an empath and a dark empath, and then between a dark empath and a sociopath. We'll talk about the psychological term "Dark Triad," and the implications of that. Finally, I'll try to make sense of it all, from the different schools of thought for and against the term "dark empath," and to figure out what and who we really are, in a world where sometimes we're maybe just a little bit more nuanced, just a little more complex, and just a little too sophisticated to simply be entirely one thing or the other. In complex times it may just require that we're a little bit of everything, depending on the world's demands, our own personal needs and selfcare, and the complexity of the situation in these highly sophisticated times.

Feeling Broken & Out of Gas Only Proves that You're Still Sane

On this no holds barred episode Rebecca and I talk about trying to hold it together most of the time, but how eventually life just keeps coming at ya, and you begin to run out of gas and start feeling broken again, and what we can do about it. We get a little bit into religion and politics, but at the end of the day we're here to be ambitious and positive helpers and healers, but every so often you got to "go there" to get stuff off your chest in order to process your feelings and reclaim your happiness and empowerment. Even us free thinking positive optimist creative types run out of faith and steam now and then, and this is show is all about that! Passion, we have learned, is a saloon door in that it can fuel our positivity as well as fuel our disgust and frustration in certain things. But at the end of the day, it's all a part of being human and desiring a better society and more opportunities and hope for regular struggling folks. We're here as a resource for everyone who needs help finding hope, sanity, and realness in a world pretending but not always acting on ways we can improve for the middle class and regular working people. https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/chefbrycomedy PayPal.Me https://linktr.ee/chefbrycomedy Surviving Empathy Podcast | Linktree Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/chefbrycomedy) Hosted on Acast.

We'll talk about jealousy and regret, and how when that festers it turns into poor mental health if not handled properly.

Welcome to My Pity Party! Nothing Seems to Work Out, Soulless Corporations are Killing Humanity!

I very rarely throw a pity party, but with all the craziness in the world and dealing with cancer raveging my poor mom, I just had to get some things off my chest! Usually, I'm much more solutions oriented. But, before we arrive at a solution, we must first get things off our chest! It's all a part of the grief process.This is a part of my Empath's Journal series, a vlog for catharsis, random musings, and venting! With mom's health getting worse, I'm heartbroken, and I'm trying my best to be here and put out good content. So thank you for your kindness and support in these crazy difficult times. I would appreciate if you could please subscribe to my Youtube channel, and I sincerely thank you.

Alien Fever! UFO Whistleblower, Aliens in the Headlines, Beyond Skinwalker Ranch, Portals & the Paranormal

On this fun and mind-bending episode, we go down the rabbit hole and consider the existence of possible extra-terrestrials and UFOs, portals, and other possible paranormal phenomenon. There's a new rise in attention and popularity of this once fringe subject that is now gaining a lot of mainstream credibility and attention, causing somewhat of a paradigm shift in our cultural thinking about the subject, and an uproar of attention in our culture today. We want to try to understand what all this could mean for our culture and society today. New whistleblowers coming out, new government task forces being created, new advocacy and reporting agencies for pilots and witnesses over the ever-increasing sightings of possible exotic crafts, and dare I say, the possible existence of aliens and the possible human/alien encounters and relations! There seems to be a real newfound surge in mainstream interest in UAP/UFO phenomenon and possible exotic foreign craft and creature sightings! So, we want to get to the heart of the matter, to try to understand what all the implications could mean, as we consider the possibility of what's really going on here?! The implications for our planet, of our culture and society, of our economy and culture, and the scientific and spiritual ramifications as well! At the end of the day, it's a good time to be a believer, and we want to get down to the absolute truth! It's a phenomenon that used to be panned as fringe nonsense and sci-fi fantasy, but there's a lot of very credible evidence and witnesses on this phenomenon now from very credible sources that gives this phenomenon newfound traction and credibility that's fascinating at best, and terrifying at worst! Let's go down the rabbit hole together, and learn all that can be derived from this alien fever going on in the media today! We'll be on YouTube once this podcast season is finished! Radio podcasters going video! Please do subscibe, it costs you absolutely nothing but helps us so very much! New videos are coming out soon, once this season is over in 1 more episode! https://www.youtube.com/@ChefBryComedy Chef Bry Comedy - YouTube Support us, listen, or join the conversation: https://linktr.ee/chefbrycomedy Chef Bry Comedy | Twitter, Instagram, Facebook | Linktree Hosted on Acast.

Stop the Drama Now! Dealing with Toxic People, Drama, Gaslighting, & the Unfortunate Side Effects when Friendships Break Down, Moving Onward & Upward from Negativity Part II

On this episode Rebecca and I continue our conversation about drama and toxic people and situations, and then through research we lay the groundwork on how we might be able to find strength, our inner core and sense of self and our center, and to empower ourselves during a moment of depression, spiritual or emotional malaise, or when someone unexpectedly targets you or places all their hate upon you unfairly, and how to find strength and empowerment to move on, and how to cut ties with those toxic people and things without it hardening your heart too much. At the end of the day, we all accumulate people who aren't so good for us, and when they turn on us, it can initially place you in a moment of shock and disbelief! Then we must learn to breathe, relax, and assess the situation logically, to find the best way to handle the situation and ourselves, to move on, and find comfort and clarity, despite the meanness and rudeness of the world, especially when we're already trying to get over a bunch of things. Paranormal, cyprids, and empath episodes coming soon! Thanks for sticking by us in our time of need! We love you! If you want to help, please share the episodes with your likeminded friends, or pitch in to our tip jar if you can! We are growing, it is happening, and its fun and surreal! Soon we'll have sponsors, but until then we need this movement to grow our empath trine so we can improve the show and the brand for you! This show is for regular people dealing with the regular life problems, and we're here to help! Thanks for being a friend and supporter of the show, and our movement of kindness and fun! We aren't perfect people, but we've dedicated our lives to rehabilitating a society that is getting downright brutal for regular folks. To find the beauty and bounty in average everyday life, that what we're all about! So please help out with a couple bucks if you can! We adore you and want to connect with you as much as we can!

Empath Talk, Mental Health Check Up, Don't Worry be Happy

On this light and breezy episode Rebecca and I talk about being empaths, what that entails, and how we as highly sensitive people must detach ourselves from the world out there as social animals enough to lower our stress levels and to find our sense of humanity, sense of humor, and a joy that endures, despite life always coming at us! To find our inner silly heart, and to let go of all those expectations, all the hurt, and all that hate out there in the world. Then, we will talk a little bit about how we as highly sensitive people must continually filter, block, and sort through this life for better mental and spiritual health, and process it in a way that's healthy, that allows us to find cathartic release and a sense of identity and wisdom in the daily struggle of living. At the end of the day, we can become so disconnected to our own joys and heart where we stray from who we really are, or we can lean into our goodness, kindness, and humor within, and find a wisdom and power in ourselves, an attitude and spark that hopefully will infect the world with our joy, our positivity, and our hope, and to grow into our wisdom and heart of who we really are, not out of who we were always meant to be. At the end of the day, we can either grow from this experience called life or we can let it take from us forever, the choice is ours! Please support the show! Please subscribe to Chef Bry Comedy!

Ghosts, 12 Types of Ghosts, Phases of a Manifestation, Exploring the Paranormal on Youtube, and Why We Like Spooky Things

On this episode Rebecca and I explore the ghost phenomenon, where I talk about the 12 types of ghosts, exploring the paranormal on YouTube and various paranormal channels, and my theory on the different phases of a ghost manifestation; from orb to full bodied apparition. As well as why people in general, and why we in particular, get into the paranormal as a hobby. At the end I talk about spirituality, and I hit myself right in the feels thinking about my own battle with depression and suicidal ideation. If anyone is having trouble, I want you to know that you're not alone, and to please reach out to someone if you're having a difficult time. We all go through struggles, and it doesn't make you weak or crazy, it makes you human. Life is hard and we all need help from time to time, to fill our lives with something positive and meaningful, that helps us process our feelings and pain. This episode was loads of fun, and typifies my podcast tagline and life motto- to mix humor with heart. Please enjoy! Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/chefbrycomedy) Hosted on Acast.

Formerly ChefBryComedy & 5 star rated Surviving Empathy Podcast, we've evolved so much from when we started all those years ago. While still a chef & comic, we're so much more now. The change reflects our growth. It's about robust living & good mental health for regular folks. It's about tackling negativity & hate in uncertain times. It's about fun, kindness, & normalcy in a world filling up with agendas & bad actors. It's about best practices, staying classy, & maximizing life! We also explore the unexplained in a fun & grounded way. Skeptics, we want to believe! But we need to know what's real. Plus pop culture & old-school nostalgia. Wistful of the good ol' days we're nostalgic. Where's our world heading? We seek clarity & better outcomes. We also explore current events & some politics. As empaths, we want to help people find true balance, kindness, & hope in an unjust society. But just because we care doesn't mean we're wimps! As a veteran, I just know we can do better!
