These are the most common barriers that prevent us from …

This feeling of inadequacy, or the nagging thought that we're somehow not qualified enough, or we aren't worthy of sharing our thoughts or opinion, is more personal to reason 3; feeling our ideas are insignificant. That’s because it’s more about our self-worth and identity rather than the external reception of our ideas. It's where you might have v…

Perhaps you have a thought or an opinion, but hold back from sharing it, not because you don't believe in it, but because you're not sure if you could defend it in a debate or discussion. This hesitation is common in environments where we feel less confident, whether it's in a professional setting, a social gathering, or even online. Part of this f…

Have you ever found yourself walking on eggshells and silencing your own voice just to keep those around you comfortable? This is often a challenge for those of us who are more empathetic and naturally tuned into the emotions of others.

I want to start with a quote from my mini-book Stop Self-Silencing, which defines what self-silencing is perfectly: “At its core, self-silencing is when we hold back our thoughts, dismiss our own ideas, opinions, and perspectives, all because we fear the potential consequences. It's a self-imposed barrier that prevents us from speaking out and shar…
