We don’t always realise when we’re holding ourselves back. It can look like skipping dessert, staying quiet in meetings, dressing down, or waiting for someone to talk to us at a networking event. On the surface, it seems like no big deal. But underneath it’s a pattern of staying small, and it chips away at our confidence bit by bit.

In this episode, I’m looking at the subtle but powerful ways we keep ourselves small in our everyday lives, and what it’s really costing us.

I’m talking about,

💃 The everyday signs that you might be keeping yourself small
👗 Why it often feels safer to stay small (and why that makes sense!)
🍰 How staying small holds you back – emotionally, professionally, and personally
🔇 Gentle but powerful ways to start taking up more space in the world
💭 One question to help you shift out of hiding and into showing up

I know that playing small means you often feel overlooked, frustrated, or like the real you is hiding in the background, so this episode is for you. 

There’s even a reflection prompt inside this one, and I’d love to hear what small act of boldness you try this week!

Oh, and I’m also telling you about my new YouTube troll. It’s hilarious, honestly!
