Stop Staying Quiet

Send us Fan MailEPISODE 62: The Silence We InheritEpisode SummaryThis week, Christi reflects on something far more personal than politics: silence.As the anniversary of her mother's death and birthday arrive just days apart, she finds herself thinking about grief, voice, and the lessons we carry long after someone is gone. Inspired by an article about women being told to stay quiet, Christi explores how many of us learned silence long before politics ever entered the picture.From childhood to relationships, workplaces to family dynamics, silence often feels like protection. But what if it isn't protecting us at all?In this episode, Christi shares why finding your voice is about more than self-expression. It's about healing. It's about truth. And sometimes, it's about finally giving yourself permission to take up space.Topics include:• The silence many women learn long before adulthood• How grief changes over time• What Christi's mother left behind• Why storytelling matters• The difference between protecting others and abandoning yourself• Finding the thread that connects your life's work• Why your story belongs to youKey TakeawayYou do not need permission to tell the truth about your life.The most important relationship you'll ever have is the one you have with yourself. Sometimes healing begins the moment you stop shrinking to make everyone else comfortable.Connect With Me🎙 Sassy PoliticsTikTok: @ChristiChanelleFacebook: Sassy PoliticsYouTube: @SassyPolitics☕ Support The ShowBuy Me A Coffee: Sassy Politics🎙 Way2HumanTikTok: @Way2HumanMediaFacebook: Way2HumanYouTube: @Way2HumanDisclaimerSassy Politics is an opinion and commentary podcast intended for informational and educational purposes only.
