"You’re overreacting. You’re too emotional. You’re crazy." If these phrases have been used to silence your boundaries, this episode is for you.
Dr. Kathy Marshack pulls back the curtain on the terrifying intersection of gaslighting and PTSD in NeuroDivergent systems. She shares raw, personal accounts of being targeted—not because she was weak, but because she represented the "Strong Mother": the confident, outspoken woman that others both crave and seek to destroy to avoid feeling small.
From childhood dishes to high-stakes courtroom battles where attorneys literally burst their buttons in rage, Dr. Kathy illustrates how gaslighting is used to erode your sanity.
Learn why your trauma response is a survival skill, not a defect, and how to transition from being a "target" to a "truth-teller" who lifts a lamp for others still lost in the fog.
