In today’s episode, I shine a light on energy vampires – those people who draw energy from draining us of ours.
My definition of an energy vampire is someone who, whether they know it or not, is invested in behaving in a way that is potentially parasitical to others.
I discuss when this is a useful term, and when it is not…and even if we should replace the phrase with a different one altogether.
