What does "turn it around" mean here? Does "turn it around" mean anything other than to physically turn things around?

When you say that you "turned it/something around," it means that you reversed the effect or outcome. In this case, the speaker is saying that he was able to win the "war of words" over Sheldon. Ex: His team was losing, but he was able to turn things around at the end. Ex: They were on the verge of breaking up, but a nice vacation together turned things around.
