Communication feels like it should come naturally — we speak every day, after all — but real, effective communication isn’t instinctive. It’s a learned skill, not a personality trait. And if you’ve ever thought, “I’m just not good at communicating,” here’s the good news: you absolutely can learn it, strengthen it, and make it work for you.

In this episode, we unpack why communicating can feel so much harder when you’re juggling symptoms, fatigue, emotions, or just the general overwhelm of life. Because let’s be honest — expressing your needs, setting boundaries, or navigating tricky conversations takes energy… and sometimes you simply don’t have much to give.

We’re here to normalise it: you’re not bad at communicating — you’re tired, stretched, and human. Join us as we explore practical, compassionate ways to communicate more clearly, kindly, and confidently, even when you’re not at your best.
