Why Being “Appropriate” Is Holding You Back From Healing
Episode 48
Wednesday, 14 January, 2026
This episode marks the official beginning of a deeper season of Human(ing) Well.In this first episode of 2026, Amber Cabral names something she has not said out loud enough before: humaning well was never meant to be clean, sterile, or palatable. While the four pillars of the Human(ing) Well framework: health, wealth, relationships, and growth remain the same, the way Amber is willing to talk about what lives inside those pillars is evolving.Today, Amber reflects on why earlier conversations stayed closer to what felt professionally acceptable and politically correct, and why that approach, while not wrong, was incomplete. She explains how avoiding topics like desire, intimacy, shame, the body, attachment, fear, power, and unspoken needs keep people fragmented and stuck, even when they are doing everything “right” on the surface. People struggle because of what is happening inside them - the parts of themselves they have been taught not to name.This episode sets the tone for the season ahead. You will hear why being mindful and respectful with language still matters deeply, and why avoiding the full range of human experience in the name of safety or professionalism actually limits healing. Reflection Questions:• Where have I been honest, but not whole?• What parts of my experience feel off-limits, even to myself?• What am I avoiding because it feels messy, exposing, or uncomfortable?• What might become possible if I allowed myself to examine all of me, not just the respectable parts?If you are willing to stay with the discomfort of deeper honesty, Amber believes this season will be profoundly liberating.🛍️ Shop Amber’s Be A Good Human merch:https://www.ambercabral.com/merch Amber’s substack | https://humaningwell.substack.com/www.humaningwellpodcast.com/Amber Cabral IG | @bamcabralLinkedIn | @ambercabralFacebook | @amber.cabralX | @BamCabral Bluesky | @bamcabral.bsky.socialWatch Amber’s TED TALK here.You can purchase Amber's books from the retailer of your choice here: https://www.ambercabral.com/books/Allies and Advocates: Creating an Inclusive and Equitable CultureSay More About That: ...And Other Ways to Speak Up, Push Back, and Advocate for Yourself and OthersHuman(ing) Well is produced by EPYC Media Network Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
