What happens when honoring yourself starts to feel like disappointing everyone else?
In this episode, I explore the tension between authenticity and accommodation - especially for millennials who were often taught to keep the peace, stay quiet, and move on instead of talking things through. We unpack how silence became a coping mechanism, why self-sacrifice was mistaken for love, and how those habits are still shaping our relationships today.
This conversation looks at what it really means to stay true to yourself without becoming closed off, defensive, or selfish. Loving others doesn’t require self-erasure - it requires honest communication, emotional maturity, and boundaries that are lived, not just discussed.
If you’ve ever struggled to speak up, felt guilty for choosing yourself, or wondered how to love people without losing who you are, this episode offers space for reflection, clarity, and growth.
