Somebody in your life has called you avoidant, toxic, or a gaslighter, and this is the episode about whether they said it to understand you or to win. Philicia and Jason take on the two most-used therapy words. Boundaries: why most "boundaries" are rules with a threat attached, the Reddit post about dancing at a wedding, the car and the gas, and why your expectations need agreements. Gaslighting: where the word comes from (a 1938 play), why Merriam-Webster's lookups rose 1,740 percent in 2022, what gaslighting actually is (a pattern, power, and control), and why "we remember it differently" is not the same thing. Plus Hanlon's razor, the army of Bond villains that does not exist, and a Did You Consider This on why access to care is political.
