Cassie and Jessica are BACK! And this episode is about that age old subject we call NARCISSISM! Ah, narcissism, the ancient Greek myth brought to life in human form. But let's not get carried away with tales of majestic self-obsessed beings staring at their own reflections all day. In clinical terms, narcissism refers to a personality disorder characterized by an inflated sense of self-importance and an insatiable need for admiration. These individuals walk around with a perpetual craving for validation, like walking fashion shows demanding applause after every strut. They also tend to lack empathy for others, viewing them merely as instruments to fulfill their grandiose fantasies. It's as if they believe the world was created solely for their amusement, while the rest of us mere mortals are just extras in their never-ending one-person show. So next time you encounter someone who believes they're the sun around which we all revolve, remember, they may just be living out their own personal Greek tragedy – without even realizing it.
