Why is it so hard to speak our truth sometimes? In this episode of the Brighter Podcast, BatSheva and Chelsea dive deep into the power—and the challenge—of finding your voice.

From navigating political "bubbles" and opposing views to breaking the cycle of intergenerational silence, this conversation is all about moving from a reactive state to a responsive one.

What’s inside this episode:

Political vs. Personal: How we learn where it’s "safe" to speak and where we stay quiet.
The "Good Girl" Conditioning: Why women are often taught to stay silent and how to break that mold.
Healing Ancestral Silence: Understanding how the silence of those before us impacts our voice today.
Spirituality as Strength: Using your values to protect the vulnerable and confront what’s wrong.
