What they said VS What they meant
from Leverage with Rebecca Zung · host Rebecca Zung, Esq. | YAP Media
What if the words a high-conflict person uses are designed to shift the power dynamic rather than simply communicate information? In this episode of “What They Said vs. What They Meant,” Rebecca Zung, The Leverage Lawyer, breaks down 7 common phrases that can trigger guilt, defensiveness, confusion, or overexplaining, including “You’re too sensitive,” “I never said that,” “I was only joking,” “After everything I’ve done for you,” “I don’t want drama,” “Why can’t you just let it go?” and “You’re trying to control me.” Learn how to recognize manipulation, protect your boundaries, stay focused on the facts, avoid defending your character, and respond strategically without giving away your leverage. Rebecca also shares three powerful questions you can use to decode what a high-conflict person is trying to make you feel, do, and avoid. #RebeccaZung #TheLeverageLawyer #HighConflict #Narcissist #NarcissisticAbuse #Manipulation #Gaslighting #Boundaries #Leverage #CommunicationSkills #HighConflictPeople #EmotionalManipulation #ConflictResolution #ToxicRelationships #Negotiation 👉 Turn your scattered documentation into LEVERAGE instantly.
