Ever wondered why you feel like you're the problem when the system is clearly broken? In this episode, we name the mind games for what they are: gaslighting. And not just from politicians or policy—it's coming from inside your own school building. From the PDs that praise your resilience while piling on more work… to the wellness checklists that tell you to take a walk instead of lowering your caseload.

We break down how to spot institutional gaslighting, how it hijacks your nervous system, and why it’s not your fault if you bought the lie. Plus, I share how we start waking up: through tools like EFT, nervous system support, and naming BS out loud so it doesn’t sneak into our self-worth.

Spoiler alert: You don’t need another checklist. You need truth.

Thanks for listening!
