What the Hell Is Going On?! (And What Do We Do Next) w/ Africa Brooke & Mark Vicente

Africa Brooke and I did an Instagram Live right after the Epstein files dropped, and we didn't hold back. Africa is one of my closest friends, one of the most honest thinkers I know, and someone who has never been afraid to ask the questions most people would rather avoid.We talked about evil... why good people struggle to recognize it, why they keep making excuses for it, and what it costs us when we do. We talked about the psychology of narcissists and psychopaths, why they need us more than we realize, and what it actually means to stop being their fuel. We went into the spiritual dimension of what's happening, the importance of protecting your nervous system without dissociating from reality, and what it looks like to find your center when everything around you is designed to destabilize you.My film is Narcissist Playbook. https://www.narcissistsplaybook.com/https://africabrooke.com/https://www.instagram.com/africabrooke/00:00 Welcome, and why this conversation matters9:10 NXIVM, waking up from a cult, and the obsession that followed14:00 Interviewing self-confessed narcissists, sociopaths, and psychopaths20:00 We are being psychologically operated on... and how to recognize it26:15 Why they need our fear, and what it means that we can starve them34:25 Locus of control... pulling yourself back inward43:00 Stop looking to mommy and daddy government to fix what they created53:35 How Africa and I met in Lisbon, and why I became a filmmaker1:06:00 Don't dissociate... let your heart be broken and filled1:16:00 Is it unethical to bring children into this world?1:26:50 Sovereignty, initiation, and finding the grit inside yourself1:36:40 Looking for omnipresent love in the creations instead of the creatorSupport the showThe views and opinions expressed on WTF is on my Mind?! do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of the podcast or Mark Vicente.
