In this bonus episode, we will explore one of the most deadly emotional games that our toxic family members play — the emotional game of gossip. Key Takeaways: ✅ Not all gossip is created equally. ✅ Our emotionally abusive family members use gossip to avoid looking at their part in any negative interaction. ✅ Signs you’re being gossiped about. ✅ In psychologically abusive families, gossip is used primarily to expend negative energy where talking poorly about you or others brings your family members feelings of power and satisfaction. ✅ Psychologically Abusive family members who gossip about you feel totally empowered when trashing you. ✅ Psychologically Abusive family members love creating negative triangles between you and others.  Get my newly released book!  — Adult Survivors of Toxic Family Members: Tools to Maintain Boundaries, Deal with Criticism, and Heal from Shame After Ties Have Been Cut.
