About this listen

If you find yourself saying yes when you want to say no, struggling with making time for yourself or find yourself masking who you really are because you feel you're 'too much' or 'not enough', this podcast is for you.

I'm Charlotte, a former anxious people-pleaser, experienced psychotherapist, speaker and visibility mentor for women business owners who care deeply about what they do but struggle with overthinking and showing up without the cringe.


We'll explore all things people-pleasing and good-girl conditioning; why you suppress your true self and feel guilty or selfish for prioritising your needs, what the signs are, and the impact it can have on all aspects of your life.


I'll share personal and professional insights and you'll discover tips and strategies to help you break free from what's holding you back, so you can move forward with confidence, unapologetically.

I’m passionate about normalising therapy so expect down-to-earth conversations you can relate to. My aim is to help you feel empowered to discover who you truly are, and experience the freedom that comes with letting go of the need to constantly please.

  • The Little Girl Who Learned How To Mask | Ep 36
    Jun 10 2025

    This episode is for the girl you used to be - the one who learned to be agreeable, quiet, and easy so she could stay accepted and feel safe. The one who was called “shy” but was actually scanning the room. The one who hid her bigness to avoid being “too much.”
    If you became what others needed, but lost touch with who you really are, this is your invitation to gently unmask. You were never too much or not enough. You were adapting. And now, you get to return to the version of you that was never broken - just hidden.

  • You’re Self-Aware… But Are You Sure You’re Seeing Things Clearly? | Ep 35
    May 27 2025

    In today’s episode, I’m sharing a really personal moment that completely caught me off guard - and shifted something deep within me.

    Despite all the therapy, training, and self-awareness I’ve built over the years… it took one conversation with someone else to help me see a belief I’d been carrying for decades. A belief I didn’t even realise was still quietly shaping how I saw myself.

    This episode is for you if you know yourself — you’ve done the work, you understand your patterns — and yet you still find yourself stuck in the same cycles:
    people-pleasing, overthinking, avoidance, guilt.

    We’ll explore why awareness isn’t always enough, how old stories can still run the show without us realising, and what it actually takes to start shifting the patterns that keep you stuck — even if you think you’dve already worked through them.

    Want to uncover why it's so hard to make those changes you've been wanting to make? DM me on Instagram about how to get started or check out an UNLOCK Clarity session.
