About this listen

In this episode of Psyched! with Dr. Seth, psychologist Dr. Seth Meyers takes the latest TV series about women being conned into giving men money and describes the psychological mechanics of how it happens. With some surprising perspectives, the analysis will make you rethink behavior that, at first, is easy to judge. In the second half of the episode, Dr. Seth discusses the emotional cost of living in an invalidating environment in which one's inner experiences are dismissed, shamed or even ignored in their relationships. Dr. Seth discusses how a biological predisposition to be more sensitive, coupled with an invalidating environment, can cause a person to have significant emotional struggles. Each week, a new psychological topic!
