Stop Shrinking: You’re Not “Too Much”

Episode Summary

Have you ever been told you’re too loud, too emotional, too much? In this episode, I talk about the hidden cost of shrinking yourself to make other people comfortable, and why so many of us learned to stay quiet long before we ever found our voice. I share a deeply personal story about silence, self-trust, and the moment I realized other people’s discomfort was never my responsibility to carry. You can shrink, struggle, or stand. I know which one I’m choosing now.
