#2: What Is Gaslighting? Reclaiming Your Voice After Emotional Manipulation

In today’s episode, we’re diving into the hot-button topic of gaslighting—what it really is (and isn’t), how to recognize it in your everyday life, and most importantly, how to reclaim your voice after experiencing it. Whether it’s subtle put-downs disguised as “nicknames” or more overt forms of emotional manipulation, gaslighting is more than a buzzword—it’s a relational tactic that can deeply affect your nervous system, sense of self, and ability to trust your own perception.I also reflect on the symbolic power of July, the momentum of summer, and how I’ve been integrating the energy of this season into both healing and creation.This episode is for anyone navigating confusing relationship dynamics, recovering from toxic patterns, or simply trying to make sense of the mental fog that often follows emotional invalidation.Let’s unpack the psychology, the impact on your body and brain, and how to start healing—from the inside out.✨ Leave a rating or share with someone who needs this.
