RECLAIM with Thais Sky

In this episode, I dive into the psychoanalytic view of gaslighting, exploring what is gaslighting (and what it’s not), and how to recognize it in relationships. I unpack the intricacies of gaslighting dynamics and how you can begin to think about it with more curiosity. Whether it's gaslighting triggers explained or strengthening gaslighting recovery, tune in for insight and ideas for how to build emotional resilience.

In this episode of the RECLAIM podcast, I offer some thoughts on the viral Let Them Theory by Mel Robbins. If you’ve ever struggled with self-abandonment, people pleasing, or attachment patterns, this breakdown is for you. Learn how emotional difficulties, relational deficits, and the worthiness wound all shape our response to rejection—and the ways this pop psychology phenomenon can both help, and miss the mark, when it comes to unconscious psychoanalytic dynamics underneath our pain.   To grab the show notes go to www.ThaisSky.com/podcast/220.   If you like what you heard, it would mean the world to me if you took a moment to leave a review and share this podcast with your community.   Thank you for your generous attention.

There are a lot of difficult parts of being human, and all of those things tend to revolve around feelings that arise within us that are hard to tolerate. Feelings that we have never been taught to feel. Feelings that we have been told are bad. Feelings that now, when they arise, overwhelms, paralyzes and collapses us. In this new series on RECLAIM called Reclaiming What Is Hard, I want to break down some of these difficult feelings, shed light on what they may mean, and explore different ways of thinking and relating to them so that you may find wisdom in what is hard. In this episode, I explore loneliness and how we can understand what happens within us when we feel so despairingly alone.   To grab the show notes including all the information on today’s guest, go to www.ThaisSky.com/podcast/219.   If you like what you heard, it would mean the world to me if you took a moment to leave a review and share this podcast with your community.   Thank you for your generous attention.

In this episode of RECLAIM, I interview psychoanalyst and author Dr. Galit Atlas about what it means to address and heal wounds that didn’t originate in our own lives but in the lives of our parents or grandparents—wounds that are now repeating in our experiences. Intergenerational trauma can profoundly affect us, often without our awareness. And it begs the question, how do you address something that doesn’t even belong to you?   To grab the show notes including all the information on today’s guest, go to www.ThaisSky.com/podcast/214.   If you like what you heard, it would mean the world to me if you took a moment to leave a review and share this podcast with your community.   Thank you for your generous attention.
