Do you overexplain yourself?
Do you send the long text, add extra details after saying no, or defend yourself when you didn’t do anything wrong?

In this episode, Ginny Priem breaks down why high-achieving women overexplain, how anxiety and conditioning drive it, and how to UNSUBSCRIBE™ from the urge to justify yourself. You’ll learn how overexplaining drains your energy, weakens your boundaries, and signals insecurity. Plus, how to replace it with calm, clear, confident communication using the UNSUBSCRIBE™ Filter.

If you’ve ever:• Added five extra sentences to soften a boundary• Defended yourself against something you didn’t say or do• Felt the need to “cover all your bases”• Over-clarified to avoid conflict

Then this episode is for you.

Ginny also explores the link between narcissistic dynamics and overexplaining, the psychology behind safety behaviors, and why sometimes less truly is more.
