436: Not Everything Needs to Be Said: Th...

Monica Yates
About this episode

You’ve been told to “speak your truth.” But what if that truth-telling… is actually pushing people away?

 

In this fiery mini-sode, I’m unpacking the energetics and trauma patterns behind unsolicited advice, oversharing, and feeling the need to "educate" someone we don't agree with—and how it’s not always as loving or helpful as we think it is.

 

INSIDE THE EPISODE:

🌶️ The subtle (but powerful) difference between honesty and control

🌶️ Why giving advice without being asked is a trauma response (yep, I said it)

🌶️ What feminine discernment actually looks like in high-caliber communication

🌶️ The dark side of "speaking your truth" that no one talks about

 

Whether it’s someone judging your birth plan or your man “fixing” something you never asked him to touch—this conversation will help you create deeper connection, cleaner communication, and true sovereignty in how you show up.
