This episode is about how I went back and listened to my last episode And I cringed. Not because the message was wrong—but because I sounded insecure, small, and afraid to shine. I took a deep dive into why, and discovered something called relational invalidation—the covert punishment for being visible. This episode is about naming it, thanking it, and letting it go. It's about recording yourself, cringing, and doing it anyway. It's about giving yourself the permission you give everyone else. And not dimming your light.
