Hey beautiful,

I've been thinking a lot about something lately, and I just had to share it with you because I know it's going to resonate deeply.

😔 You know that feeling when you're sitting in a meeting, and someone suggests something you completely disagree with, but instead of speaking up, you just... nod along?

😔 Or when your partner asks what you want for dinner for the third time this week, and you say "whatever you want" even though you're craving something specific?

If you're nodding right now (there you go again! 😉), you're not alone.

And here's the thing that might surprise you - this pattern of keeping quiet, of putting everyone else first, of swallowing your words... it might be more connected to your thyroid struggles than you realise.

​

When Your Throat Chakra and Your Thyroid Collide

I know this might sound a bit mystical, but hear me out.

Your thyroid sits right in your throat - the same area that's governed by what energy workers call the throat chakra.

This energy centre is all about communication, speaking your truth, and expressing who you really are.

Think about it:

How often do you actually say what you're thinking?

How often do you advocate for what you need?

If you're like so many of the women I work with, especially those of us with ADHD brains, you've probably spent years being the "good girl."

The peacekeeper.

The people pleaser.

We've mastered the art of reading the room and giving people what they want, often at the expense of our own needs.

​

​

The Anger That Has Nowhere to Go

Here's what happens when we spend years - maybe decades - not using our voice:

We develop this deep well of unexpressed anger. 😡

It's not the explosive kind that gets released through arguments.

It's the quiet, simmering kind that gets pushed down every single time we say "yes" when we mean "no."

Every time we minimize our needs.

Every time we tell ourselves our feelings don't matter as much as keeping the peace.

And here's the really profound part - autoimmune conditions like Hashimoto's are literally your body turning against itself.

Your immune system is attacking your own tissue.

Doesn't that sound eerily similar to what happens emotionally when we spend years attacking our own needs, our own voice, our own truth?

The Daily Reality You're Living

But I see you.

• 😔 I see you saying you're "fine" when you're exhausted.
  ​
• 😔 I see you volunteering for that extra project at work because you can't bear to disappoint anyone, even though your energy is already running on empty.
  ​
• 😔 I see you staying quiet when your family member makes that comment again, swallowing the words that want to come out in order to keep the peace.

And then you wonder why you wake up feeling like you've been hit by a truck. Why your brain feels like it's wrapped in cotton.

Why your body feels like it's fighting against you every single day.

What if I told you that learning to use your voice - really use it - could be one of the most healing things you do for your thyroid?

Your Action Steps (Start Small, Beautiful)

This Week:

• 💪 Notice when you swallow your words. Just notice. No judgment, just awareness.
  ​
• 💪 Practice saying "Let me think about that" instead of automatically saying yes to requests.
  ​
• 💪 Write down three things you've been wanting to say but haven't. You don't have to say them yet - just get them out of your head.

​

This Month:

• Have one uncomfortable conversation you've been avoiding.
  ​
• Set one boundary that feels scary but necessary.
  ​
• Ask for help with something specific instead of trying to do it all yourself.

​

Moving Forward:

• Start asking yourself: "What do I actually want here?" before responding to others.
  ​
• Begin each day by checking in with yourself: "How am I feeling? What do I need today?"
  ​

Key Takeaways to Remember

✨ Your thyroid and your voice are more connected than you might think
​
✨ Years of people-pleasing can create unexpressed anger that manifests physically
​
✨ Autoimmune conditions often mirror our relationship with ourselves
​
✨ Healing involves reclaiming your power and learning to communicate your truth
​
✨ Small steps toward authentic expression can have profound effects on your wellbeing

​

The journey of hypothyroid recovery isn't just about optimum meds or the perfect diet (though those matter too).

It's about healing the relationship you have with yourself.

It's about stepping into who you really are, not who you think you should be.

With Love and Fire
