Ep 58 | How to Make Some Noise: Speak Your Mind & Own Your Strength
Andrea Owen has a new book: Make Some Noise: Speak Your Mind and Own Your Strength. In this week's interview with Kim, Andrea walks us through the anger she has felt by “being raised in a culture that told me to quiet down—that my voice, my spirit, my ambition, my most everything was too much.”
In the interview, Andrea discusses why we hold back in our lives and how to use the fire in our bellies to burn the whole damn “quiet” culture down. As she states in her book, “Women have been socialized to not make too much noise, put everyone else before us, and to make everyone else comfortable. All of this at the expense of our own values, desires, and dreams. Many times, we don’t even consciously realize this is happening. But unconsciously we know. It manifests as resentment, poor boundary setting, lashing out, negative self-talk, unnecessary apologizing, people-pleasing, and approval seeking. And that feels like shit.”
