Ever caught yourself saying "I'm fine" when you're anything but?

In this episode, I unpack the quiet, everyday lies we tell to keep the peace and how they quietly teach us to hide what we really feel.

From the "thank you I love it" moments at Grandma's house to the "just be polite" white lies we tell our kids, I reveal how these tiny habits of dishonesty shape our emotional reactions and communication patterns.

You'll learn how to trade comfort for clarity, guilt for growth, and how to speak the truth calmly and confidently without blowing up, backing down, or overexplaining.

If you're ready to stop performing "fine" and start showing up real, this episode will help you take the first step.

Because peace doesn't come from pretending; it comes from honesty

"Your truth isn't too much, it's your power." – Jenny Maxwell
