In this podcast, Ross interviews Alex Katehakis, a renowned marriage and family therapist specializing in sexual addiction and healthy sexuality. Alex shares her journey, starting with an interest in human sexuality and later focusing on sex and love addiction, as well as sexual codependency. She explains the difference between healthy and problematic sexual behaviors, noting that it’s not the acts themselves but the misuse of sex that causes issues. Alex also highlights how childhood trauma and emotional deprivation can distort one's view of love, sex, and intimacy.
The discussion touches on challenges faced by people struggling with codependency and self-love deficiency, particularly in relationships with narcissistic partners. Alex explains how early experiences shape the nervous system, leading to unhealthy patterns, where sex and love are often confused to avoid abandonment. Healing, she says, requires therapy, group support, and self-reflection. She emphasizes the importance of addressing trauma to develop a healthy sense of self and a balanced approach to intimacy.

With a new introduction, Ross re-shares the video that has changed thousands of lives.
The most effective of all the narcissist's manipulative strategies is “Induced Conversation.” Especially when breaking down a no-contact initiative or when trying to hoover (suck back into the relationship) the codependent. For codependents to not get sucked back into the relationship that has nearly destroyed them, they must have potent countermeasures to survive the narcissist’s induced conversation strategies.
Induced conversation is the primary weapon that the narcissist wrestler uses to maintain their power and control over you. As you begin setting boundaries, breaking off the relationship, and even utilizing the ODA technique, you will fail if you do not understand what is at stake for the narcissist. Remember, their number one goal is to keep you in the wrestling ring.
Narcissists are nothing by themselves, despite what they may tell themselves. They need you like they need oxygen to live. Internally, they are filled with insecurity, shame, and dread, regardless of if they are conscious of it. Most narcissists can’t become aware of these internal battles. There may be rare moments where they can connect with their shame, such as moments when they meltdown, beg, plead, and promise you everything so they can keep you in their life. However, that window closes quickly and is unlikely to reopen. They simply are oblivious to their darker sides and their shame.
Induced conversation is what keeps them in control of the relationship. It is how they command their powers and control strategies. After all, if they can get you to respond, defend yourself, or argue, you will be right back in the wrestling ring with them.
To wield this power, the narcissist has to get you to talk to them first. If you try to go no-contact, the only way for them to get back into your life is through induced conversation.Support the show

In this podcast, Ross Rosenberg, M.Ed, LCPC, CADC, discusses the concept of pathological loneliness, a profound existential pain that individuals with self-love deficit disorder (SLDD), or codependency, experience when they are not in a relationship. Rosenberg explores the roots of this condition, its connection to codependency, and how it manifests as a visceral, bone-aching pain driving individuals into unhealthy relationships to avoid loneliness. He likens SLDD to an addiction, where the "drug" is the relationship itself, not the narcissistic partner. Through this discussion, Rosenberg aims to shed light on the existential crisis faced by those with SLDD and offers insights into his Self-Love Recovery Treatment Program as a path to healing and overcoming this debilitating condition.

In this podcast, Ross Rosenberg, M.Ed, LCPC, CADC, discusses Codependent Threshold Reactors as a type of codependent personality characterized by intense emotional reactions and a tendency to overreact to perceived threats or slights. They often have a hair-trigger temper, quickly becoming angry and defensive when their boundaries or needs are unmet. This can lead to explosive outbursts, hurtful words, and damaging behavior. In relationships, Threshold Reactors may become overly attached and clingy, seeking constant validation and reassurance from their partner, which can create a toxic cycle of codependency. A fascinating topic!

In this podcast, Ross Rosenberg, M.Ed., LCPC, CADC, explains the distinct characteristics between covert narcissism and sociopathy. In this deep dive, he elaborates that both disorders involve a degree of manipulation and lack of concern for others, the motivations and behaviors associated with each are different. Covert narcissists seek admiration and validation, whereas sociopaths are driven by a desire to exploit and control others. It’s important to note that these are complex disorders that should be diagnosed by a professional. If you suspect someone might have one of these disorders, it’s crucial to approach the situation with care and seek guidance from a mental health expert.

In this podcast, Ross reveals the insidious tactics of pathological narcissists and how they manipulate, coerce, and gaslight those who lack self-love. By understanding the concept of narcissistic trauma leakage, we can overcome the long-term effects of abuse and regain control of our lives. The term "leakage" is a reminder that the trauma seeps into different areas of our lives, affecting our emotional and physical well-being. By acknowledging and addressing the impact of narcissistic abuse, we can break free from the cycle of victimization and move forward with strength and resilience.

Ross uses the "bait and switch" term to explain the furtive and manipulative manner in which pathological narcissists present unrealistic and untrue versions of themselves to "close the deal" on a new relationship. Like scrupulous car salesman, they offer all the "bells and whistles" to distract the "buyer" into believing they are getting a tremendous deal and should be happy about it. Deceptive narcissists use this manipulative technique to prey upon the vulnerabilities of people with self-love deficit disorder (codependency), who believe only in what they see and what is promised, and not what is hidden and withheld.

Michelle and I talk about her tremendous contributions to the codependency and trauma healing fields. As usual, we have a grand ole time talking about your similar and different views on codependency/self-love deficit disorder and how to facilitate healing for those suffering from it.
Michelle is responsible for numerous breakthrough treatment techniques, but her Adult Chair model stands out among them. It represents a person's highest self: living in the present moment, dealing with facts and truth over stories and assumptions and being able to set boundaries from a place of patience and compassion.
While seated in the Adult Chair, we can deeply connect with our inner child’s needs and feelings and objectively observe our adolescent’s behaviors. It is here, and only here, that we can become aware of—and overcome—the emotional triggers and negative patterns that hold us back.

Ross Rosenberg discusses codependency/self-love deficit disorder addiction and how it fools people into believing their happiness is real. He explains how pathological narcissists exploit vulnerable codependents/SLD's by making them believe the initial false love can be brought back/rekindled.
"Drug Happiness" represents the codependent's belief that the Human Magnet Syndrome compelled "soulmate" experience is real and lasting. In truth, it is a temporary condition that disappears shortly after the beginning of the relationship. Pathological narcissists who are afraid of losing their SLD partner may try to re-enact the beginning of the relationship to make their partner believe in the drug happiness delusion.

Explaining codependency and self-love deficit disorder. Terri asks Ross about his "origin story." Ross also explains his redefinition of codependency to self-love deficit disorder. Ross also talks about his Observe Don't Absorb Technique (ODA) and Induced Conversation Technique. He describes what is "love bombing" as it plays out between a pathological narcissist and their prey - the self-love deficient/codependent. He explains why narcissists can't change and, because of this, why, in his Self-Love Recovery treatment program, the SLD's relationship with the narcissist always terminates. He explains the specific definition of codependency and how it has many personality variations.
