About this listen
In this episode, we break down the science behind entitled behavior: where it comes from, how it shows up in relationships, families, and workplaces — and what makes you so susceptible to being bulldozed by it.
We’ll cover:
-
The psychological roots of entitlement (narcissism, insecure attachment, learned helplessness)
-
Why entitled people expect emotional labor and obedience from others
-
How your guilt, people-pleasing, or fear of confrontation fuels their behavior
-
Actionable strategies to stop enabling it without burning yourself out
If you constantly feel responsible for others’ moods, walk on eggshells, or over-explain yourself just to keep the peace — this is the episode that will change the game.
Stop appealing to duty. Start reclaiming your emotional space.
