Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Liz is a top-level executive in a major advertising firm. She’s worked hard to get where she is, and she seems to be on the verge of reaching her goal of taking over the company’s New York office. But then someone else is brought in to take the job. #2 When Mitchell went shopping with his girlfriend, she pointed out that he still dressed like a little boy. He went to a department store and asked the personal shopper to help him choose an entire wardrobe. He felt like a new man, but his mother burst out laughing when she saw him. #3 The Gaslight Effect is when a person who is being Gaslighted starts to believe the things that their Gaslighting partner says, and they begin to believe that they are not good or capable people. #4 Gaslighting is when someone you trust, respect, or love speaks with great certainty, and you begin to doubt your own perception of the situation. It is difficult to not believe them, and when you do, you are more susceptible to being gaslit.
