my name’s helena and i am a self-silencer (hi helena) ;)

this episode chronicles my journey from compulsively hiding to stepping into the spotlight of my own life. specifically, i talk about overcoming my fear of speaking — the trembling, the throat-tightening, the urge to disappear.

this one’s for you if you’ve ever perspired at the thought of using your voice. i promise the world needs to hear you. sending love.
