About this listen

In this impromptu bonus episode of The India Gill Podcast,

I reflect on the coping strategies we develop in childhood—like being the ‘good girl’, staying quiet to keep the peace, or always staying strong for others—and how these same patterns can quietly become barriers in adulthood.

What once helped us survive can now keep us stuck. I speak from the heart about how these ingrained responses show up in our relationships, our work, and our sense of self, and what it means to begin unlearning them.

This one’s unscripted, raw, and real. If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything “right” but still feel disconnected or exhausted, this might be for you.

Let me know what it brings up—I’d love to hear your thoughts.
