Silence is a Killer

Silence is a Killer

It’s on the tip of your tongue. You want to say it, but you don’t.

  • Your infectious laugh fills the room and your partner shoots you a look and bellows stop cackling. The words impale you, but you stay silent like a dear in the headlights.
  • You’re at dinner with your friends and the political topic just rubs you the wrong way. You fade into the bench and get lost in your wine.
  • Your boss schedules a meeting over a time where you have out-of-office. You acquiesce and miss your kids game.

Why are you not saying what’s on your mind?

Why are you giving your power away and playing the shrinking violet?

Successful and all put together on the outside and trapped inside!

I feel you. I spent so much of my life whether it was with family, friends, or business bound to silence. And it wasn’t because I didn’t have much to say. Just the opposite!

But over the years my difference was met with resistance and the resistance had consequences.

Unknowingly, I fell into this pattern of not rocking the boat. I stopped speaking my mind - stopped taking a stand.

I became the slow boiled frog.

The heat got turned up and one day it was over.

I lost my voice and stayed silent.

And I stayed hostage to that.

I stayed silent because I believed there would be consequences. I was afraid of slowing my career down because I lost favor; alienating my friends because I pissed them off; or having constant arguments with my husband.

THE TRUTH:?That was all in my head. I had given my power away because of fear. I felt like I wasn’t enough. I not only lost my voice, but I also lost my courage. I lost myself.

Are you willing to stay silent and give your power away?

Wouldn’t you love to fully express yourself with ease?
