Growing up, silence was never peaceful for me it was discipline, distance, and dismissal. In this episode, I share how the silent treatment shaped me from childhood into adulthood: the anxiety it created, the walls it built, and the echoes it left in my friendships, school life, and work. But I also explore what it means to reclaim silence ,turning it from punishment into healing, from something that suffocated me into something that now restores me.
