Why do so many women say “sorry” when there’s nothing to apologize for? From apologizing for taking up space to softening our voices just to be heard, we've been conditioned to shrink ourselves—and it’s time to break that cycle. In this unapologetically bold episode of The Hint Hive: Amplifying Women’s Voices, host Kelly Hint, feminist life coach and psychotherapist, dives deep into the roots of over-apologizing and how it’s quietly sabotaging our confidence, power, and presence.
You’ll learn why this habit runs deeper than just words, how it ties to societal expectations of femininity, and most importantly—how to stop. Packed with relatable truths, neuroscience-backed tips, and empowering action steps, this episode will help you rewrite your internal narrative, reclaim your voice, and step into your authority without shrinking or sugarcoating.
Plus, don’t miss this week’s Quote of the Week from the legendary Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie—it’ll light a fire under you.
Hit play, ditch the “sorry,” and start taking up space like the powerhouse you are.
