Your Mother or Your Life!

Sven Erlandson
About this episode

Buckle up and meet Nick. He feels he's becoming a narcissist, filled with justified rage toward his parents, totally stuck in life and in danger of destroying his marriage. Sven has to work hard to pull out Nick's honest feelings and get him on the right path. When your father won't support or protect you and sends you to his abusive mother, and your own mother is a therapist who does nothing but harm you, it's no wonder you can't get past the pain. Sven goes full badass on Nick to shock him into helping himself toward a much better life. Explicit content. And be sure to join us for "Badass Overtime - Nick" for insightful post-show thoughts.
