Welcome back to our follow up episode on Gaslighting. Episode 18 received a POWERFUL response -- the MOST downloads & the most feedback. It is SO NECESSARY to talk about something that is prevelant (though kept under wraps through fear, shame, or confusion) and yet something that makes people feel so isolated. You. are. NOT. alone. Get into the right headspace... and listen in <3

Welcome to episode 18… a personal look into Jenna’s own experience as a victim of psychological, emotional, and mental abuse. Gaslighting was a MAJOR tactic that was used and Jenna uses her own experience to help make sense of a very confusing, manipulative situation. Learn to spot the warning signs of being gaslit, gain insight into these behaviors, and use the knowledge to equip your resilient mind or share it with a loved one who might need the insight themselves.

As always, this is NOT a substitute for counseling and I strongly recommend reaching out to a mental health professional for a safe space to talk about gaslighting if you are experiencing these signs in your life. I will always be here to help you gain awareness into difficult situations and be there WITH you as we work toward building a greater Peace of Mind together.
