  • [Encore Episode] Healing from Gaslighting with Dr. Amelia Kelley
    Jul 31 2025

    Over the next month, I’ll be sharing encore episodes of the podcast - conversations that remain just as relevant and impactful today. New episodes will be back in September!

    This week’s encore episode features fan-favorite Dr. Amelia Kelley, and we’re digging into what gaslighting really is, how it shows up in our lives, and how we start to heal from it. This conversation originally aired in 2023, but it’s just as relevant today — especially if you’re navigating the aftermath of emotional abuse or trying to reclaim your sense of self.

    Dr. Kelley is a trauma-informed therapist, researcher, and author whose work centers on women’s issues, relationship trauma, adult ADHD, and empowering survivors of abuse. Together, we unpack how gaslighting is used as a tool for power and control, how it erodes confidence and self-trust, and why self-care isn’t optional when you’re healing, it’s essential.

    What you’ll hear about in this episode:

    • The misconception of gaslighting: what it is and what it isn’t

    • The effects of gaslighting on a victim’s mental health

    • Dr. Kelley addresses the question, “Is lying gaslighting?”

    • You cannot heal from trauma that you are still experiencing

    • The steps to overcome and heal from gaslighting include becoming aware, getting outside feedback, and boundary setting

    • What self-care looks like during the healing process

    • Self-regulation for chronic stress when being emotionally abused

I can not recommend this series enough - for women in the middle of the eye of storm in a divorce, for women who need more knowledge and information in a controlling marriage, and heck, even for women who are engaged and set to marry. Knowledge is power, sharing information makes us (women) go further and be more successful. I wish I had access to this BEFORE my married my spouse...

I love how knowledgeable and trauma-informed the host and guests are, and how uplifting and holistic the podcast episodes are, without being in any way forced.

The host Kate is wonderful - inspired, sensitive, open and honest.
