Gaslighting Your Inner Children

Send us Fan MailGreetings Adult Child,In this latest episode, I sat down with my friend & mentor Leslie about the danger of gaslighting & emotionally invalidating your feelings. As survivors of childhood stress, neglect & trauma, most of us are taught to never speak our truth or trust our feelings which often lead to physical, mental & emotional suffering. This way of living locks us up in an endless looping system of self-abuse vs self-acceptance.If you can relate, this conversation may help you remember that in every moment, your feelings are subject to change and as long as you speak clearly, kindly & compassionately with others & with yourself, you no longer need to seek approval or external validation from others, get gaslit by others and mostly gaslight and lie to ourselves. About my guest:Leslie Lindsey Davis is a bestselling author, popular speaker, and creator of the Emotional Honesty Framework. She helps people recognize and trust their emotions—especially when they’ve spent years being told what they feel is wrong. Her work focuses on the connection between emotional invalidation and the habits we develop to cope, including patterns like emotional eating, self-doubt, and staying silent when something doesn’t feel right.Leslie is also the author of several books, including You Can’t Eat Love and her newest release,Your Shirt Was Always Pink, which explores how we learn to question our own emotional truth—and how to begin trusting it again.Through her writing, speaking, and workshops, she helps people understand what they’re actually feeling, where it comes from, and how good it feels when you allow your voice to be heard, seen, and witnessed.To begin the process of trusting, owning & honoring your feelings, visit her website at https://leslielindseydavis.com/leslie-lindsey-davis--emotional-healing-honest-conversations-and-seSupport the showStay Connected with Vandana Light Healing :✨ Website: vandanalighthealing.com YouTube: @VandanaLightHealing Facebook: VandanaLightHealing Podcast: Hope & Healing LinkedIn: Vandana Atara Noorah Instagram: @vandana_light_healing Amazon Author: Vandana Atara Noorah
