Are You Always Second-Guessing Yourself? Doubting reality?
It Might Be Gaslighting
Have you ever left a conversation feeling disoriented, doubting what just happened, or even questioning your own memory? Do phrases like “You’re too sensitive,” “That never happened,” or “Can’t you take a joke?” leave you spinning? You might be experiencing gaslighting—a form of emotional manipulation designed to make you question your reality.
In this episode of Worthy of Work, Stephanie Rivard breaks down the dynamics of gaslighting: where the term comes from, what it sounds like in everyday relationships, and how it erodes our confidence and self-trust over time. If you've felt confused, crazy, or stuck in a relationship that leaves you walking on eggshells, you're not alone—and you’re not imagining things.
Stephanie shares the red flags to watch for, why this behavior is more than just a disagreement, and what emotionally healthy responses might look like. You’ll learn how to identify subtle gaslighting phrases and begin to rebuild your internal clarity and boundaries.
This conversation isn’t about labeling others—it’s about validating your experience and reclaiming your sanity.
