Help! I Have a Narcissist In My Life19 Mar

Why Empaths Attract Narcissists (And How to Break Free for Good)

If you're an empath who keeps attracting narcissists… this is not random.

In Episode 69 of Help! I Have a Narcissist in My Life, Laurel Slade-Waggoner breaks down the powerful—and often painful—connection between empaths and narcissists, and why so many compassionate, caring people end up in toxic, one-sided relationships.

If you've ever felt:

Drained from constantly helping others

Responsible for someone else's emotions

Unable to say "no" without guilt or fear

Stuck in a relationship where you give everything and receive nothing

👉 This episode will bring you clarity, validation, and a path forward.

🔍 In This Episode, You'll Learn:

✔️ What an empath really is (and why it's NOT a weakness)
✔️ Why narcissists are drawn to empaths
✔️ How narcissists use charm, victimhood, and manipulation to hook you
✔️ The difference between godly empathy vs over-empathy
✔️ How over-empathy forms (and why it keeps you stuck)
✔️ Practical steps to stop being exploited by narcissists
✔️ How to set boundaries—even if you feel trauma-bonded
✔️ Why learning to say "no" is key to your healing

⚠️ The Truth Most Empaths Need to Hear:

Narcissists don't see your empathy as love…
They see it as supply.

And unless you heal your over-empathy, you may continue to:

Attract toxic relationships

Stay stuck in emotional abuse

Feel overwhelmed, exhausted, and unseen

But there IS a way out.

🙏 Biblical Encouragement & Healing

This episode also shares powerful biblical truth and encouragement, including:

📖 Galatians 1:10 – Stop living to please people
📖 Proverbs 29:25 – Fear of man is a trap
📖 Galatians 6:5 – Each person carries their own load
📖 Jeremiah 30:17 – God restores and heals your wounds

God does not call you to carry what was never yours.

💬 If This Spoke to You…

You are not alone.
You are not weak.
And you are not crazy.

You are likely wounded—and healing is possible.
