you are not too much [you were just taught to shrink] | june self-love book club

click here to tell us how this landed for you ❤️ have you ever been told you're too much? too loud, too sensitive, too emotional, too intense… too you? 🤍 i want you to sit with this for a second: were you ever actually too much- or did you just learn to tame yourself to be easier for everyone else to love?this week on the self love archives podcast, we're closing out June and our theme of impressing your inner child with our book club read, Untamed by Glennon Doyle. we talk about the invisible cage we were all put in, built from other people's expectations, insecurities, and discomfort and how the girl who got called "too much" never disappeared- she just got quiet.i'm getting honest about my own untaming: years of letting people walk all over me, and finally choosing to break out of the cage and be irrevocably myself. we get into going inward to find your own voice again, why you can do hard things (your pain is a passage, not a permanent place), and the one question that changes everything- not "what does everyone expect of me?" but "what is the truest, most beautiful thing i can imagine?"because you are not too much. you never were. they were just not enough to hold all of you.🎧 new episodes every Sunday at 12PM EST📖 grab Untamed by Glennon Doyle 📕 and join our free self love book club community on the fable appconnect with julia on instagram @beautybyjulia + tik tok @juliasalviaunlock more archive content on instagram @theselflovearchive + tik tok @theselflovearchivessign up for the self-love archives newsletter: www.theselflovearchives.com
