Show Notes
Ever notice how one small comment can make you question everything you just experienced? A flat "That never happened." A breezy "You're too sensitive." A confident denial of something you know is true. It looks like a disagreement. But your mind spirals. And suddenly you're presenting evidence, explaining your memory, trying to prove your own reality to someone who was never confused about it. That wasn't a misunderstanding. This episode of How to Convince with Lawyer Vince is about gaslighting, what it actually is, why it works on smart, grounded people, and the one shift that changes everything. When They Gaslight, DO THIS. In this episode, I break down: How to recognize the pattern before it has you doubting yourself
Why pulling up the receipts always backfires
How staying calm is the most powerful move in the room
The anchoring phrases that hold your ground without escalating
Plus Q&A on: When your manager raises his voice and then laughs it off
Having honest political conversations when neither of you knows everything
Why learning communication skills sometimes makes it harder in the moment
Redirecting your team without making it weird after a promotion
Handling a coworker who's bitter you got the role they wanted
This episode is about staying grounded in your own reality. About refusing to hand your sense of truth over to someone else. About knowing you don't need their agreement to know what's true. If you've ever walked away from a conversation feeling like somehow you were the problem, this one is for you.
