EP11 - Breaking Free: Overcoming the Fear of Judgement and Belonging
Season 2/Episode 11/Breaking Free: Overcoming the Fear of Judgement & Belonging.
In this episode, we're diving deep into something so many of us quietly carry — the fear of being judged and the ache to belong. If you've ever found yourself shrinking, second-guessing, or holding back parts of who you truly are just to feel accepted… this one’s for you.
We’ll unpack where this fear comes from, how it shows up in our everyday lives (even when we think we’ve “moved on”), and why our nervous systems often keep us playing small, even when our hearts want to expand.
You’ll hear honest reflections, gentle truth bombs, and a few laughs along the way — because healing doesn’t always have to feel heavy. Let this episode be a soft permission slip to step out of hiding and come home to yourself — no masks, no apologies.
Take a breath, grab a cuppa, and let’s walk this path of belonging together.
In This Episode, We Cover:
Discover how the fear of judgment can prevent us from following our own path, even when we have permission to do so.
