#165 - Finding Your Voice Without Losing Connection
From Conversations from the Heart · 27:18
Show by Yvette Erasmus
Today’s conversation may sound like a roommate dilemma on the surface, but underneath, it’s about something much deeper: voice, power, and learning to trust ourselves in relationship.In this episode, I speak with Leah, who's navigating a shared living situation where something no longer feels right. What begins as a question about leases and renovations quickly becomes an exploration of what it means to speak up, set boundaries, and stay self-connected even when it feels uncomfortable.Together, we unpack the fear of being seen as “too much,” the tendency to soften or second-guess ourselves, and the nervous system responses that can make clear communication feel rigid or confrontational.Read more on the blog.Want more direct access to me?
