How To Spot & Stop Manipulation & Gaslig...

Impact Theory
About this episode

Pause… Did you catch part of one of my conversation with Dr. Mariel Buque? By the end of today’s episode you’ll know exactly how to spot the gaslighting and manipulation tricks being used against you.

When it comes to love and relationships, being love-bombed only to be manipulated and gaslighted by your partner is a trap even professional psychologist have found themselves in. When you don’t have words to put to the experience and you’re not even sure what is happening at the time it’s confusing and scary. 

I want you to have the knowledge and the tools you need to spot the bullsh*t early and act accordingly knowing your value and your self-worth. 

My guest today, Dr. Mariel Buque and all of her awesomeness, was named to Lewis Howes’ School of Greatness Top 100 List of the Greatest People of 2022 Doing Good. She’s been featured on Good Morning America, The Today Show and so much more.

In part one, Mariel exposed a side of love-bombing you never hear spoken of that way. In this part of our conversation Mariel goes layers deepers on the 7 stages of manipulations: 

*Breaking the default “sorry” mode we’ve all fallen into

*Ways to cut off that “Hoovering” ex that’s always lurking

*A brand new way to think through the best version of you being manifested

Ladies! We’re done with feeling like we’re crazy and we’re flipping the damn tables with this episode.
