What to Say When Someone Tries to Gaslight, Silence, or Shut You Down—And How to Flip the Script | Charles Duhigg PT 2Description
After laying a powerful foundation in Part 1, Lisa and Charles now take the conversation deeper into mastering practical, emotional, and social types of dialogue—skills crucial for creating healthy, thriving relationships both at home and at work. Charles shares essential strategies for recognizing the type of conversation you’re in, matching your partner’s emotional state, setting boundaries, and knowing when to walk away for your own wellbeing.
This segment covers tools for expressing your needs, handling toxic or manipulative patterns (like “kitchen sinking” or being steamrolled), and how to foster genuine connection—even during disagreements. Charles and Lisa discuss nonverbal cues, the role of humor and laughter in building bonds, the neuroscience of emotional synchronization, and how to invite deeper conversation through “deep questions.”
