In this episode we are going to explore the feelings of being unheard, or misunderstood, and we aren’t talking about speaking loudly or audibly enough, we are talking about when you put yourself out there, share your thoughts and feelings, desires and you feel like they aren’t being picked up by the person you are sharing with.

When it comes to triggers, sometimes, if you have past experiences of not being heard or understood, you may be prone to feeling this way often, or be hypervigilant, or always on the look out for other people not hearing you.

For example: Your past experience might be that you were raised as ‘children should be seen and not heard’ or it might be an accumulation of events like in your childhood when you wanted to play soccer, but you were made to play basketball, you wanted to write and be creative but you were raised in a family where that was seen as airy fairy and not aloud to explore your creative side and so on.

Have a listen.
