Fluent in Manipulation: "When Therapy Language Becomes a Weapon"
About this episode
The hosts discuss how therapy language has been misused as a weapon in arguments.
SaVon, Antoinette, and Josh unpack how therapy language — gaslighting, narcissist, boundaries, love bombing — got pulled out of the therapist's office and turned into weapons we use to win arguments. They get honest about misusing these words themselves, and what it costs when naming something replaces actually feeling it.
