We need to talk.Because somewhere between “I’m setting a boundary” and “I don’t have the capacity for this,” healing language turned into something else.In this episode of Space in Between, we dig into how therapy-speak—once born in safe spaces and healing circles—has become a kind of emotional armor.A performance. A way to avoid responsibility, shut down discomfort, and still sound emotionally evolved while doing it.We explore: – when therapy language connects vs. when it distances – why “protecting your peace” sometimes just means ghosting people you’re scared to confront – and how self-awareness stopped being a process and became a trendThis isn’t about judging people who use this language.I’ve used it too.It’s about asking: am I using these words to get closer to others—or to stay in control?If this episode made you pause—great.If it made you uncomfortable—even better.🎙 Listen. Reflect. Share.
