Have you ever felt like you’re constantly walking on eggshells, afraid to say anything that might upset someone?  In this episode of The Healing Paradox, we’re going to dive into why we learn to do this and what it really costs us. We’ll explore how to break free from this pattern and reclaim the freedom to be ourselves again. You’ll learn some really cool stuff, like why “keeping the peace” often starts in childhood and how it can stay stuck in our bodies. We’ll also talk about the hidden cost of self-silencing and people-pleasing, and how to gently reclaim space in your voice, breath, and body. And here’s the best part: we’ll share some simple ways to start speaking small truths, safely and honestly. Plus, there’s a grounding practice that’ll help you expand rather than stay small.
