Lauren: 我自己也有“不能说出自己的想法”的局限性,并且在某些情况下很难表达自己的感受。我希望通过这次谈话,能够帮助更多的人打破这种限制,勇敢地表达自己的真实想法。 Jaquisha: 自从我祖母去世后,我就开始想说什么就说什么。过去我常常会粉饰很多事情,但现在我不再那样做了,这让我感到轻松。在工作中和育儿时,我仍然会控制自己,但在其他情况下,我不会。我正在努力变得更好,直接提出问题。现在我可以表达自己的想法,这让我感觉好多了。

Shownotes Transcript

Speaking up for yourself and expressing how you feel can be difficult for some people. It wasn't until Jaquesha Moore's grandmother passed away that she felt like she could really share how she felt with others. If you're working on how to better communicate with the people around you, tune in as we discuss communication in the worksplace, friendships, romantic relationships, family, and more. 

This episode is a reminder that you don't have to shrink yourself. It's ok to epxress your truth during uncomfortable conversations. Even though it may go imperfectly as you grow in using your voice, you are phenomenal and capable of developing this new skill. 

In this episode you'll hear about:

  • masking who you are and how you feel, 
  • prioritizing other people's comfort over your own, 
  • evaluating friendships in your thirties, 
  • addressing issues with your partner, 
  • burying your feelings, 
  • getting to the root of issues that need to be communicated, 
  • no longer sugarcoating your feelings and being blunt, and 
  • teaching your children communication skills.

At the end of the episode, we reframe her limiting belief "you can't speak your mind" to fit more within Quesha's desired reality. Stay tuned until the end to shift your mindset.
