Are you overriding your instincts—and potentially putting your safety in jeopardy—to make others feel comfortable? Listen in this week as the therapists dish and dive into their personal experiences with feeling unsafe and vulnerable as women.

The conversation explores how their childhood experiences of feeling powerless and voiceless have impacted their ability to assert themselves in potentially dangerous situations as adults. Pam and Iona also discuss how the societal pressure for women to be "easygoing" and not "make a fuss" can override their intuition and put them at risk. They emphasize how this dynamic of female voicelessness intersects with the threat of male aggression that many women face—and offer an empowering message to everyone experiencing this struggle.
