Ep. 98: Speaking Out About Speaking Out

Warning: This episode includes references to incidences that some listeners may prefer not to hear about or they may find triggering if they’ve experienced it themselves. In this episode, Natalie shares why she feels that she needs to speak out about speaking out. Sharing personal experiences of having spoken out about very difficult issues including harassment and assault, as well as anecdotes from readers, listeners and friends, Natalie created this episode because she hears all too often from people who don’t speak up or speak out because they ‘don’t want to make a scene/fuss’ or they fear being perceived as ‘dramatic’, ‘needy’, ‘a psycho’, ‘lying’ etc., who are struggle to grapple with the emotional, mental and even physical consequences. We forget when we ‘play nice’ and keep silent, we very often struggle to live with ourselves.
