Do you ever feel like being easygoing somehow turns into being overlooked, dismissed, or taken advantage of?

In this episode, I sit down with Cordelia for our second coaching session and we unpack a pattern so many people live inside of without realizing it. When you’re flexible, capable, and willing to help, those traits can quietly become the reason you end up carrying more than your share, questioning yourself, and feeling trapped or burned out. Together, we explore how these dynamics form, how your nervous system responds when boundaries aren’t honored, and what it actually looks like to start responding differently in real time. This is an honest, grounded conversation about confidence, boundaries, and learning to trust yourself again without becoming rigid or shut down.

You might want to listen if:
• You’re often described as easygoing but feel like it costs you
• You struggle to say no and then feel resentful or overwhelmed afterward
• You notice anxiety, shutdown, or burnout building over time
• You second-guess yourself and wonder if you’re the problem
• You want to set boundaries without feeling guilty, harsh, or unsafe

Ever wonder how something meaningful actually gets built when you don’t rush it?
In this special New Year’s Eve episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on the backstory of the Speak Honest Podcast and how it grew into 100 honest conversations about attachment, relationships, nervous system healing, and real change. From an accidental name in a college group project to a steady space for women who are tired of pretending they’re fine, this episode is about consistency, honesty, and staying when nothing seems to be happening yet. We’re celebrating the milestone, reflecting on the journey, and looking ahead to what’s coming next as we step into a new year together.

You might want to listen if:

• You feel behind in your life, healing, or relationships and wonder if the slow path still counts
• You’re exhausted from repeating the same patterns and want things to finally feel different
• You’re curious how Speak Honest actually began and why it means so much
• You’re heading into the new year craving reflection, not pressure
• You want a reminder that honest, consistent effort really does add up

Do you ever walk away from a conversation feeling exhausted because you said way more than you meant to?

In this episode of Speak Honest, we unpack the real reason you talk too much when you’re nervous. This isn’t about learning to “say less” or fixing your communication. It’s about understanding the story underneath your urge to overexplain, the fear of being misunderstood, and the quiet self judgment that kicks in when connection feels shaky. I’ll walk you through why overexplaining is actually a nervous system protection strategy and how to shift it by questioning the story instead of performing for understanding.

You might want to listen if:

• You replay conversations in your head wondering why you said so much
• You overexplain when you’re late, emotional, or afraid of being judged
• You feel a surge of panic when silence shows up in conversations
• You struggle to trust that your words can be simple and still be enough
• You want to communicate calmly without feeling exposed or unsafe
