What is the difference between self love and narcissism? Can narcissistic people change?

Licensed therapist Jonathan Decker and filmmaker Alan Seawright react to a Disney experimental era classic, The Emperor's New Groove. They take a look at Kuzco’s narcissism and his journey to a healthier place. Jonathan defines narcissistic personality disorder and contrasts narcissism and self love. Alan dives into the performance process for voice actors and how to direct actors in a sound booth. And they can’t get enough of David Spade’s humor that few people can pull off - acting like a jerk and making it funny!
