“Self-Absorbed Individuals” Tonight on “Conversations Of A Sistah”


Do you know anyone who is so totally into themselves? So much so, that they’re annoyingly self-absorbed? Their entire conversation is all about “me, me, me, me, me” and it’s to the point that you try to avoid all conversation and contact with them. Now there’s nothing wrong with loving yourself but it’s all about loving and accepting who you are, feeling secure about yourself and having a high self-esteem.

Are you self-absorbed? To some extent, most of us can be self-absorbed at particular times in our lives, to a lesser or greater extents. In many cases, we learn that it doesn’t get us the sense of fulfillment we’re seeking. However, by staying self-absorbed all of the time, you risk alienating many people, becoming narcissistic and only ever putting yourself first. Is this happening to you or someone you know?

Join me this Thursday October 11, 20128:00 PM on “Conversations Of A Sistah” as I address this topic.

And as usual the conversations are always continuing here but we welcome your emails on this topic at: conversationsofasistah@readywriterproductioncompany.com  

You can access the show at the link —-> here!!! – and I’ll meet “you all” on the air!!!

Note: The women pictured in this post, were chosen randomly and are not my guest on tommorrow’s nights show. Thank you for your emails.
