Why I Started Talking

Released 25 January 2026 · 29 min

Show Notes

The very first episode. After years of silence, secrets, and pretending everything was fine, I decided to start talking. This episode is about why — what pushed me over the edge from keeping it all inside to saying it out loud, in public, where anyone could hear.

I talk about growing up in a family where feelings were something you kept to yourself, where 'getting on with it' was the highest compliment anyone could pay you. I talk about the years I spent performing wellness while falling apart behind closed doors. And I talk about the moment I realised that silence wasn't protecting me — it was killing me.

This isn't a polished, produced, perfectly scripted show. It's me, a microphone, and the truth. If that sounds like your kind of thing, welcome. You've gone 2 far — and so have I.
