Show Notes
What does the Wizard of Oz and psychological ideas have in common? Well, quite a bit – as long-time listeners of the show will be aware. How can we learn about ourselves and others by thinking about Dorothy and her journey to the emerald city?
In this episode I start my journey into understanding narcissism (there will be quite a few episodes!) and explore the well-known psychological concept of flying monkeys. As well as avoiding the monkeys swooping around us it’s also time to get out of defence mechanism bingo cards again.
Here are the highlights of this episode:
(2.17) How to know if you are dealing with a flying monkey
(4.10) Why do we get dropped like a hot potato?
(5.37) Rationalisation
(7.10) Have you been a flying monkey?
