LESSON 1: What is Gaslighting?
We begin by setting a foundation of what gaslighting is per the Deconstructing Gaslighting® pattern-based definition as well as the varying levels of awareness and motive the gaslighter has.
​
LESSON 2: Sign/Effects & the Progression of Effects Scale
This is the very first step toward taking your power back - learning to recognize when the sings/effects of gaslighting are showing up in you. In this lesson you'll learn the 13 most common signs gaslighting may be happening, as well as the way the impact of gaslighting progresses from confusion, to ultimately, loss of connection with yourself.
​
LESSON 3: Phases of Healing
Give yourself a roadmap for your journey, "goal posts" so you can track your growth as you go through the rest of the course, and practical tools to keep you safe while you are on this journey.
​LESSON 4: The Methods
Increase your ability to recognize gaslighting behaviors by deconstructing the methods. You answer the question: "How can I tell...?" You will use these to create RED FLAGS that alert you to gaslighting in the future.
LESSON 5: The Techniques
Starting to go a bit deeper, we identify the seven techniques often used in gaslighting. We address the question: "Why/How does this happen?"
LESSON 6: The Tactics
Taking out our microscopes (not literally, lol), we zoom in on the finer details of how gaslighting occurs. This is where you learn about things like: love-bombing, mirroring, double-speak, and so much more, and connect them to the different techniques and methods.​
​
LESSON 7: The Roles
Deepen your instincts and inner wisdom by identifying the different roles a Gaslighter may take on. We link the ties between the tactics, techniques and traits the different roles exemplify.
LESSON 8: Why We (HUMANS) ARE SUSCEPTIBLE
Explore the ways we are both externally and internally pre-disposed to being susceptible to gaslighting. We answer the question - "Why does this happen to me?". Learn to use this new awareness to alert yourself to the areas you need to pay special attention to as you engage those around you. You don't CHANGE who you are. You get to VALUE who you are and see your susceptibilities simply as the areas where you need to create boundaries (aka protection).
LESSON 9: Gaslighting Risks and Vulnerabilities
This is a pivotal lesson where you get to dive into your internal world and reveal the reasons you keep getting sucked into the patterns of gaslighting experiences. In this lesson you will confront the question – "Why do I do this?" and learn how you can recognize when your risks are activating the things that make you vulnerable to the gaslighting traps.
​
LESSON 10: Gaslighting Traps
This is just as pivotal as the last lesson. Here you learn about the four traps and connect the risks and vulnerabilities to the traps that have the strongest pull for you. This is crucial for learning how you can stay connected to your inner wisdom and empowerment and avoid falling into those same traps ever again!
LESSON 11: Deconstruction Time!
You are now able to see how all the moving parts of gaslighting work together: roles, methods, techniques, tactics, risks, vulnerabilities, and traps. This knowledge gives you the clarity to see where and how you can BREAK THE CYCLE – it's like getting the superpower of x-ray vision and you can now see through the bullsh*t!"(Sassy Sarah wanted to come out to play on this one! )​
LESSON 12: Relationship Healing
This is where we tackle one of the hardest questions: "Will they change?". By taking a look at how REAL change sounds, looks, and feels, you get a CLEAR picture of what YOU HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO EXPECT from someone who says they're "working on it."
LESSON 13: Things to Consider
Honesty, courage, vulnerability, self-awareness, grace, tenacity. These are the things you'll tap into this week as you take a look at the reasons you are staying in a relationship where there is gaslighting happening; you call out any reasons that are NOT in alignment with your values and identify where values conflicts are keeping you stuck.
