What does it really cost you to stay quiet?
In this episode of Beyond the Speech, I sit down with Colette Feir, author of The Cost of Quiet, to talk about the invisible price we pay for not speaking up — in our relationships, our careers, and our sense of self.
Many of us learned early that being “easy,” “nice,” and “low-maintenance” kept us safe. But that silence slowly turns into resentment, burnout, and a feeling that we’re living someone else’s life.
Colette breaks down:
- Why people-pleasing feels safer than telling the truth
- How staying quiet erodes confidence and self-respect
- The emotional and psychological cost of not using your voice
- What it actually takes to start speaking up — without becoming someone you’re not
This isn’t about being louder.
It’s about being honest.
If you’ve ever swallowed your feelings, avoided conflict, or stayed quiet to keep the peace — this conversation will hit close to home.
