What shapes the voice you carry into difficult conversations? Long before conflict shows up in adulthood, our earliest experiences quietly teach us how to speak… or stay silent.

In this episode, Eve shares a deeply personal part of her story, a childhood spent sailing around the world until the age of 11. A life without roots, routine, or certainty. A life that demanded adaptability, emotional awareness, and resilience long before she had words for them.

This isn’t nostalgia.
It’s reflection.

Eve explores how those early years shaped her relationship with communication, safety, and truth and why understanding where your voice was formed is essential if you want to use it with confidence today.

This episode is for you if:

• You’ve ever struggled to express what you really feel
• You sense your past still shows up in present-day conversations
• You want to understand why speaking up can feel so hard and what helps

This is the beginning of a deeper conversation Eve will continue throughout the podcast: how lived experience shapes the way we communicate, connect, and protect ourselves.

Because difficult conversations don’t start in the moment.
They start in the stories we carry.

Have a conversation you’re afraid to have? Eve wants to hear from you.
