Navigating Narcissism in LGBTQ+ Relationships with Sally Leslie
<p>This week I am talking with Sally Leslie of the Reclaiming Pride: LGBT+ Survivors of Narcissistic Abuse podcast and my colleague! Sally talks about her decision to create a podcast to address the unique experiences of LGBTQ+ individuals in toxic, narcissistic relationships. We talk about the challenges of finding relevant literature and the pervasive heteronormativity in self-help resources, which often fail to reflect the experiences of non-heterosexual relationships.</p><p>Our discussion touches on the psychological and emotional aspects of narcissistic abuse, including gaslighting, performative empathy, and the profound impact on victims' mental health. Sally explains how narcissists often target empathetic and vulnerable individuals, perpetuating cycles of abuse rooted in the victims' past traumas.<br/><br/>Sally Leslie is currently the Director of Faculty and Instructional Development at Valencia College. An educator with over twenty-seven years experience, Sally started the podcast Reclaiming Pride, partly, to fill a gap in a self-help genre that ignores the needs of the LGBTQ+ community.

Office Hours: My Favorite Teacher & The Looking Glass Self
<p>Welcome to my office hours! I have often thought that the times my students come and talk with me during office hours are some of the most real moments in higher education. The Office Hours episodes of Most Popular will try and give you that feeling of tucking in to a sort-of comfortable office chair and taking a deep dive into a topic, event, or question that needed some extra TLC. (We can also talk about the band TLC whenever you want.) <br/><br/>This episode of Office Hours addresses a theory that is often covered in sociology, the looking glass self, a concept deeply rooted in demonstrating that the way we see ourselves is not always the way others see us. I relate it to the story of my favorite teacher, Mr. Tom Richert, who is retiring this year after one million years of service. I truly hope you all have had the opportunity to have that one supportive teacher in your life and I also hope this episode makes you think of them and maybe shoot a quick note to see how they are doing. <br/><br/>Dr. Adrienne Trier-Bieniek is a gender and media scholar who has published books on gender and pop culture, Beyoncé's influence in music, Tori Amos's fandom, as well as publications focused on the ways pop culture can help heal from trauma.
