After the huge response from one of our most popular episodes, "Too-Muchness" I wanted to open up the platfrom to our listeners so that they could share their own stories. This collaboration blew me away. In a world where, as women, we are continually getting the underlying message to " be small" and adhere to a norm that has us being less than we could be, the "you're too much" trigger is one that I felt was really important to hghlight. When a woman is told what she's doing or how she's behaving is "too much" I believe it's part of a bigger systemic issue. Without "too-much" there are no new ideas, new conversations, or growth. There are just old ways of being, old patterns as well as pushed down feelings and potential. In this episode we explore all of that and with the help of our listener's contributions as well as the thoughts and experiences of our previous guests, we can see how insidious this seemingly benign phrase can be to a woman's spirit. From marriage, to family, to relationships at work and with other men and women, these stories help to illustrate the box this term puts us in and why it's time to stop tolerating it. Our job is to be who we are, and being "too-much" is a huge part of moving the collective needle forward. From our emotions, and personalities, to our talents and dreams...my call to action for you is to keep being too much. Every. Single. Day. We need you.
I'd like to thank every single one of you for being a part of this and helping me to have this conversation.
A huge shout out to Liz Vetrano, Caitlin Marcoux, Stephanie Perrotti, Robyn Stockdale, Michelle DaRin, Chantal Erasmus, Kim Boyle, and Shawn Cheshire for their contributions and support.
