19: Reclaiming your worth: Resilience, self-trust & rising after being told you’re “too much” with Becky Louise Smith

In this episode, I sit down with Becky Louise Smith, a survivor of domestic violence and an empowerment coach who helps survivors reclaim their self worth and learn how to love again.Becky shares the midlife moment that changed everything. She was told she needed to be “more resilient” at work after months of being unsupported and mistreated. That single word hit a nerve, not because she was weak, but because she had already survived so much. It became the moment she stopped performing, stopped shrinking, and decided she was no longer available for spaces that did not respect her.We talk about what resilience actually is. How the ability to feel deeply can be a form of strength. Why crying is not a lack of capacity, but often proof of it. Becky shares the non negotiables that keep her grounded, including movement, rest, and returning to gratitude and presence. We also explore the inner shift that happens when you start filtering your life through simple questions like: Does this protect my peace? Do I feel respected here? Am I safe in myself?This conversation is for anyone who has been told they are too emotional, too intense, too much. It is also for anyone who has spent years trying to earn belonging by making themselves smaller.If you are navigating a hard chapter of life, rebuilding after heartbreak, or learning how to choose yourself again, let this be a reminder.Your feelings do not make you fragile. They make you real.And you are worthy.Connect with Becky (she/her)Instagram: https://beckylouisesmithFacebook: https://beckylouisesmithLinkedIn: https://beckylouisesmith
