Have you ever noticed how gossip can feel like connection in the moment, but leave something uncomfortable behind afterward?
In this episode of Sarah’s Thoughts, Sarah Grynberg explores the psychology of gossip and why it can feel so tempting, even when it doesn’t align with who we want to be. She unpacks how gossip creates a false sense of belonging, offering a quick emotional high while quietly eroding trust and integrity.
Sarah introduces the concept of triangulation and explains how bringing a third person into unresolved tension spreads anxiety rather than relieving it. She reflects on how gossip often reveals more about our own insecurities than the person being discussed, and why judgment can feel like control when we are searching for safety.
You’ll learn:
This episode is an invitation to pause before we speak, to choose compassion over whispers, and to become someone others feel safe around. Because integrity is quiet, powerful, and deeply felt. And when we protect the person who isn’t in the room, we protect the kind of relationships we want to have.
