Today’s guest is Leslie Saba, a Certified Positive Intelligence® coach who believes that staying quiet to keep the peace is one of the fastest ways to lose connection in a relationship. For decades, Leslie lived what so many women experience—holding things in, avoiding conflict, and carrying the quiet emotional weight of unspoken needs. On the outside, everything looked fine, but inside there was tension, disconnection, and a heaviness she couldn’t ignore. After learning the communication and mental fitness skills that transformed her own relationships, Leslie now helps high-functioning women express themselves with clarity and confidence—without guilt or fear—so they can feel calm, respected, and deeply connected again.
Leslie, what have you found is the real cost for women who keep things in to avoid conflict? And can you help us understand—what is emotional weight?
