Let's be honest: you've felt it. That surge of "main character energy" when the perfect song plays as you walk down the street. It's the empowering, viral call to live as the protagonist of your own life story. But what happens when the credits roll and you realize everyone else in your life has been cast as a background extra?

Welcome to The Protagonist Problem, the podcast that dissects the hottest trend in self-care and asks the uncomfortable question: are you the hero of your story, or just a narcissist in the making? We're diving deep into the psychology behind "main character syndrome," exploring how a mindset meant to boost well-being can quickly devolve into a dangerous delusion where your friends and family become mere "non-player characters" (NPCs) in your personal movie.

Join us as we unpack the fine line between healthy self-agency and toxic solipsism. We'll explore why this feeling is so addictive, the real psychological dangers of seeing others as props, and how to harness the best parts of this energy without becoming the villain of everyone else's story.

If you're ready to explore whether your narrative is one of empowerment or entitlement, you've found your next obsession. Follow us now and find out if you're truly the main character, or just lost in the plot.
