33. Gaslighting & Narcissism Explained — How to Know If You’re in a Toxic Relationship | Claudia Davis Mini Series Part 1

Have you ever wondered… am I using these words correctly? “Narcissist.” “Gaslighting.” “Toxic.” These terms are everywhere right now—but what do they actually mean? And more importantly… how do you know if you or someone you love is in a truly harmful relationship? In this first episode of a 3-part series, I sit down with Christian therapist Claudia Davis to bring clarity, truth, and biblical wisdom into a conversation that the world often distorts. We talk about: What “narcissism” really is (and what it’s not) What gaslighting actually looks like in real life The difference between hard relationships vs. harmful ones Warning signs of emotionally unhealthy or unsafe dynamics When it’s time to seek help and support This episode is not about labeling people—it’s about bringing truth, discernment, and healing into situations that feel confusing, heavy, or even isolating. Friend, if you’ve been questioning your relationship, feeling emotionally drained, or wondering if something just isn’t right… this conversation is for you. And most importantly—God sees you, cares about your safety, and desires peace and truth for your life. ✨ Connect with Me (Bethany): 🌐 Website: https://www.psychologytoday.com If you are in need of professional counseling support, Claudia is a trusted, faith-based resource who can walk alongside you with wisdom and care. 🎧 Don’t miss the rest of this series: Make sure you’re following the podcast so you don’t miss Parts 2 and 3, where we go even deeper into healing, boundaries, and what God says about relationships.
