I’m not an expert or a therapist—I’m just someone who’s been told I have a way with words when it comes to emotionally charged topics. People call me to vent, to process, to figure things out. This podcast is an extension of that. This is a space without judgment, where we’re all just trying to do better and understand ourselves and each other more clearly. If you’ve ever wished you had better words for what you’re feeling or dealing with, this podcast is for you. Join me in finding language for life.

    Episode 7 - Language & Power Dynamics: Taking back needy, selfish, sensitive

    Ever been called “needy” for voicing a need, “selfish” for recharging, or “too sensitive” for spotting real impact? These words aren’t neutral—they’re loaded with power dynamics that shut down conversations and rewrite your story. In Episode 7 of What Would Myx Say?, we unpack how society weaponizes “needy,” “selfish,” and “sensitive”: from dictionary meanings to cultural shame, conflict shutdowns, spirals of self-doubt, and the power flip when someone else defines you. Get practical reframes and scripts to reclaim them as information, not verdicts—without rules or perfection. Not expert advice, just perspectives to help find better language for the hard stuff. Thoughtful, non-judgmental, real-talk reframes for adults navigating relationships and self-growth. Sources in show notes. Submit questions via website. http://liinks.co/wwms #WWMS #LanguagePower

    Episode 6 - The Words We Don't Say: When Silence Speaks Louder Than Words

    When the vibe is off but no one will admit it, most of us retreat into silence and hope the tension magically fixes itself. This episode is about those unspoken moments—the sighs, the topic changes, the “I’m fine” that obviously isn’t—and how they quietly reshape our relationships. In “The Words We Don’t Say,” we dig into silence as its own kind of language: what avoidance is actually communicating, why “just say it” advice so often backfires, and how our history, culture, and power dynamics all shape when we shut down instead of speaking up. Together, we walk through gentle ways to name the tension without turning everything into a blowup, plus real-world phrases you can try the next time the quiet in the room starts screaming. If you’ve ever replayed a conversation in your head thinking, “I didn’t say what I really meant,” this one’s for you. It’s not about becoming hyper-confrontational; it’s about building a little more language for the moments you usually swallow.

    Episode 5 - Loving Hurt People: When Compassion Starts to Cost You

    Ever felt like you’re auditioning for the role of “emotional shock absorber” at 3am, twisting yourself into pretzels to explain why your friend’s latest snap-fest is “just their trauma talking”? This episode’s your wry wake-up call—loving hurt people without letting their mess rearrange your whole life. The 3AM Trap You know the script: “They’re not bad, they’re just hurting,” as your group chat plots an intervention and your nervous system screams for the exit. We unpack how understanding their baggage explains the drama but doesn’t mean you sign up as the crash dummy. It’s that sly slide from compassion to “why am I canceling therapy again?” Wry Reframe Toolkit • Hurt explains the bite-marks on your sanity, but doesn’t excuse turning you into eggshell central. • Ditch “I get it, so I’ll take it” for “I see your pain, and mine’s real too—what now?” • Distance isn’t damning them; it’s updating your life settings so you’re not the unpaid therapist. Your Late-Night Lifeline No saintly sermons, just snarky-honest phrases for when their “sorry, bad day” routine hits replay. If you’re pacing the kitchen drafting that boundary text, this equips you to exhale without the guilt hangover. Checkout more and make Podcast Submissions at: https://liinks.co/wwms

    Episode 4 - Shame: Should Have Already Mastered Everything (Sounds Stupid When You Say It Out Loud)

    Quick thought experiment: if your friend said “I’m 35 and I still don’t have relationships figured out - I should have mastered this by now,” you’d probably tell them that’s absurd. But when you think it about yourself? It feels completely true. This episode explores that gap - between what sounds ridiculous when someone else says it versus what feels like valid self-criticism in your own head. We’ll talk about where the “should have mastered it” belief comes from, the difference between guilt and shame (and why it matters), why “mastery” isn’t even the right goal for human skills, and how to find different language for growth that doesn’t keep you stuck. If you’ve ever felt behind, like everyone else has it figured out except you, or ashamed that you’re still struggling with things you think you should have mastered by now - this one’s for you. Spoiler: you’re not supposed to have it all figured out. Not by 25, not by 35, not ever. Want to submit a question? Podcast Submissions **Finding Language for Life**

    Episode 3 - Boundaries: What You’ll Do, Not What They Need to Stop

    Have you ever told someone “you need to stop doing that” and been genuinely surprised when they… just kept doing it? This episode explores what boundaries actually are (spoiler: not demands about other people’s behavior) and why the ones that work depend on your consistency, not their cooperation. We’ll talk about the difference between “you need to stop” and “I’m going to do this,” how to follow through every single time, how to tell if someone is struggling to adjust versus choosing not to respect your boundaries, and what to do when people push back. If you’ve been exhausted from trying to get people to respect boundaries that never seem to stick, if you feel powerless in your relationships, or if you’re tired of negotiating your own limits - this one’s for you. Your boundaries don’t require anyone else’s cooperation to work. They just require yours. Want to submit a question? Podcast Submissions **Finding Language for Life**

    Episode 2 - Communication vs. Comprehension: When Saying It Clearly Still Doesn’t Work

    “But I already told them!” Yeah, you did. And they still didn’t get it. This episode explores the gap between saying something clearly and someone actually understanding what you mean - and why that gap is where most of our relationship frustrations live. We’ll talk about the invisible context problem (all the stuff in your head that didn’t make it into your words), why “I communicated it” isn’t the same as “they comprehended it,” and how to actually check if someone understands what you’re trying to say. If you’ve ever been frustrated that someone “just isn’t getting it” even though you’ve explained it multiple times, this one’s for you. Communication is important, but comprehension is where the real work happens. Want to submit a question? Podcast Submissions Finding Language for Life

    Episode 1 - Good People vs Bad People: A Different Perspective

    Have you ever been told someone is “just a bad person” or that you’re “too good for them”? It’s simple. It’s clean. And I don’t think it’s actually true. This episode explores why the good vs. bad binary is too narrow to capture the complexity of human behavior. We’ll talk about hurt people hurting people, the difference between someone who’s resistant to learning versus someone who wants to grow, and how to have compassion for why people behave the way they do without enabling harmful behavior. If you’ve ever struggled with whether to give someone another chance or cut them off entirely, if you’ve been told “good people don’t do that” but you’re still figuring things out, this one’s for you. The goal isn’t to label people - it’s to understand them clearly enough to protect yourself while staying human. Want to submit a question: Podcast Submissions **Finding Language for Life**
