About this listen

🎧 In this episode of The Gaslit Brain series on The FEMCAST, we dive into the chilling concept of malignant self-love — the driving force behind narcissism and psychopathy — as explored in Sam Vaknin’s groundbreaking book Malignant Self-Love.

We unpack what happens when people with no empathy or accountability rise to positions of power — from workplaces to politics — and how their behaviour corrodes entire systems. Through the story of a whistleblower who exposed corruption and paid the price, we reveal how society often protects toxic power while punishing truth-tellers.

This conversation shines a light on how narcissists manipulate, gaslight, and objectify others, creating environments that foster fear, silence, and mental harm. We explore why psychological safety must be recognised as a human right, and how empathy and education are our greatest defences against manipulation and abuse.

Join us as we expose the patterns of power and control — and imagine a future built on empathy, accountability, and safer communities for all.

💡 Listen now and learn how to spot the signs, protect yourself, and become part of the movement for change.

👉 Subscribe for more conversations that amplify women’s voices and dismantle the systems that silence them.
