Ep 138: Radical Honesty


Listen Later

How many times have you said you were “too busy” when you just didn’t want to do something? Or answered “I’m fine” even though you were struggling? We’ve all been there. But these small white lies—and the bigger ones we tell ourselves about who we are and what we want—can quietly become tiny prisons that limit our authenticity.

In this episode, we’re diving into something that might make you squirm, but is essential to becoming your favorite version of yourself: radical honesty. Here’s the thing–every time you make an excuse instead of simply saying “no thanks,” you’re not just lying to someone else. You’re sending yourself the message that your real feelings aren’t valid enough to stand on their own. Over time, that kind of dishonesty erodes your relationship with yourself and builds walls between you and the people you love.

Remember, no matter how uncomfortable it is, the truth will set you free–and that's exactly where the growth happens.
