In today’s society we come across a lot of grandiose characters. From politicians to social media gurus, in our careers and in our personal relationships, we’re bound to encounter people who have the biggest voice in the room and want everyone to believe their ideas and opinions are best. 

In this episode of The Therapy Room, Niall is joined by our expert psychologists Louize Carroll and Dr. Tony Bates to break down the complexity of grandiosity in all its forms. They discuss the difference between grandiosity and narcissism, the subtle ways it can show up in our daily interactions and the not-so-subtle presentations in some of our world leaders and the silencing effect it can have on a person in a relationship. They also look at why someone may act in a grandiose demeanour and how, really, it can be a counter-reaction to shame.
