About this listen

In Episode 6 of The Health Manifesto, we explore how the language of personal responsibility can quietly turn into shame.

From subtle coaching scripts to clinical dismissals, we unpack how well-meaning messages like “try harder” or “be more disciplined” can keep people stuck in loops of guilt, exhaustion, and self-blame.

This episode offers a reframing of responsibility — not as pressure, but as presence — and invites you to speak to your body with more context, compassion, and capacity.
