Welcome back to Am I Too Loud?! where today we’re discussing a disease many of us had in our 20s: being way too nice and calling it “having a good heart” 😭💀 In this episode, I’m unpacking the nice girl trap, people-pleasing, saying yes when I wanted to say absolutely hell no, overexplaining myself when I didn’t need to, and why being “easygoing” had me stressed, resentful, and lowkey disappearing. We’re getting into how this shows up in friendships, dating, work, and family, the guilt that hits after you finally set a boundary, and how to stop abandoning yourself just to be liked. If you’ve ever been the “chill” one but secretly wanted to scream, PODD FAM… this is your episode. Let’s heal, laugh, and learn how to say NO as a FULL SENTENCE 💋🎙️
