#407 | The Fear of Finally Using Your Voice
What if the fear of using your voice isn’t your fault, but something you were taught? In this powerful and deeply honest conversation, we open up about the painful experiences that conditioned us to stay quiet, from childhood wounds to uncomfortable moments at the gym. We’ve both had to learn how to reclaim our voices, set boundaries, and rewrite the stories that kept us small. If you’ve ever felt like speaking up was unsafe or wrong, you’re not alone. We’re here to remind you that your voice matters, and it’s never too late to start using it. Tune in and take that first step with us.
