There's a vile sickness in Abbas town.

You must excise it.

Dig into the deep earth and cut it out.

Hey, this is Annie.

And Samantha.

Welcome to Stefan Never Told You, production of iHeartRadio.

And we have this episode. Due to my constant watching of social media.

And you know what?

It's something we need to talk about because it definitely is a concern for women's health.

And what we're speaking about on this Monday many is self-silencing, which I've never heard it as a term. I feel like I hear new things

that have been around for a very long time and we just know of it without the term. But, yeah,

self-silencing. So according to Newport Institute.com, it is the tendency to engage in compulsive

caretaking, people-pleasing, and not expressing one's self. Most often,

people self-silance in order to preserve a significant relationship. Who boy. And this may be another

one of those for many of y'all, including you, Annie and myself, where we're like, are you talking to me?

Stop that type of conversation. And yeah,

we are. Again, if you're wondering why we're talking about this, well, it's because women have been more socialized in practicing this specific style. And by the way, it's killing them,

essentially. And I'm not being dramatic.
