Description

In this episode of Banish the Lies, Tania shares the story of a 10-day silent meditation retreat that challenged everything she thought she knew about peace, healing, and the voice in her head. What began as a search for relief from emotional pain became an unexpected lesson in observing thoughts rather than automatically believing them. Through humor, honesty, and reflection, Tania explores the difference between hearing the inner critic and becoming it, and why true freedom may have less to do with controlling our thoughts and more to do with changing our relationship to them. If you've ever found yourself trapped in worry, self-criticism, or the constant commentary of your own mind, this episode offers a powerful reminder: you are not the voice in your head.

52: The Lie: Putting Yourself First Is Selfish | Carmen Walsh on Living the Life You've Been Given

For decades, Carmen Walsh was the supporting actor in her own life, the woman everyone could count on. After years of people-pleasing, burnout, and unhealthy relationships, she finally understood she was never here to follow or carry anyone else. She set herself free and became her own joyful authority. Today, Carmen is a speaker and writer who helps women reconnect with themselves, let go of self-abandonment, and discover the freedom that comes from living authentically. In this conversation, we explore: • The lie that putting yourself first is selfish • How responsibility can quietly become self-abandonment • Why following your joy isn't selfish • The subtle difference between personal growth and trying to fix yourself • Why life isn't a test to pass, but a gift to experience • Simple ways to reconnect with yourself when you've spent years taking care of everyone else Whether you've struggled with people-pleasing, burnout, or the belief that putting yourself first is selfish, this conversation offers a fresh perspective on responsibility, joy, and what it means to truly live the life you've been given.
