#5: Controlling & Creating The Narrative - Why We Do It (Even With The Best Of Intentions), Reactive Abuse & How To Deal With Someone Creating A False Narrative About You

Controlling or creating the narrative is something that happens almost every day, even if its when you don't want to admit you ate the last row of the chocolate bar in the fridge when you know it was for someone else!

Controlling the narrative scales from the little white lies we tell others (or even ourselves), to much bigger lies, manipulation, reactive abuse and gaslighting, which can have such damaging affects to those involved. 

In this episode I discuss the different reasons why we may feel the need to control the narrative, even when we have the best of intentions, reactive abuse and how to handle a situation when someone is creating a false narrative about you.

If anything you have heard in this episode has made you think you may be a victim of reactive abuse, you can find out more information here:
