Thanks Bronwyn. In my experience never reach out to HR! They are usually responsible for maintaining the homeostasis of the system - the corporate gaslighting is normalised as business as usual for this group and they usually run to the defence of the CEO
I did go through to HR but they were siding on the side of the corporation. I did not know that I was part of a system. I had to just figure out just to move on from that ordeal and I am still recovering psychologically.
I simply looked my boss straight in the eye with a Bill Belichick like death stare and firmly said "No, you didn't" when she tried to gaslight me. She backed off.
Thank you for this video, Bronwyn, and for providing the words to describe a phenomenon which occurred at my previous job which I struggled to describe previously. I had called it "toxic positivity" -- everyone had to pretend to be happy, even though they were in actuality miserable. But it was more than that; we had to adhere to this false reality, this imaginary narrative, about the company where everyone was happy and everything was perfect. Dissent and truth-speaking against the narrative were punished. I'm both sad and grateful to learn that this is something common enough in workplaces to have its own term. Sad others are going through it, but grateful to not be alone.
Hi, the truth is that we r on the wrong side of the equation....i filed a criminal law suit against public officials for corruption....well, the AG office, the Institution, the judge came together to protect and uphold the forth unwritten power of the constitution: monstre sacré la corrupton....the case is still going and i am still alive as of today....wish i had seen this video 3 years ago and a million dollars gone...fighting on the wrong side. Location: south of the border, the honor system does not work
Never, EVER contact HR without a lawyer. They are never, EVER on any side but the gaslighters. Gaslighting is their primary job.

Good for you!!! Some systems can’t be fixed. Best to find a better system and heal. Which is exactly what you’re doing!

Nice!!!!
The biggest corporate gaslighting job of all is convincing humanity that it NEEDS corporate culture.

Beautifully said and I completely agree with your sentiment.
