Welcome to the Listen Bitch Podcast where we burn down the bullshit and resurrect your God-given power. I’m Branden LaNette, truth-teller, visionary, and author of Once Upon a Time, Bitches. This show isn’t for the weak willed...it’s for the woman who knows she was made for more and is done apologizing for it. If that’s you, hit subscribe. If not? Keep scrolling, sweetheart.
**WHY YOU NEED TO WATCH THIS:**
You have been keeping a quiet ledger of everyone who did not share, did not comment, did not show up, and that ledger is a comfort document protecting you from a harder explanation. This episode burns it and hands you the only variable you actually control.
**WHAT THIS EPISODE COVERS:**
The ledger of people who did not support you and why it functions as an explanation that has nothing to do with the work, why being loved and being an audience are completely unrelated variables, the fact that every audience in history was earned slowly and boringly in unfavorable conditions, the neuroscience of variable reward schedules and reward prediction error and why ten views registers as rejection instead of ten human beings, attribution bias and why failure gets blamed externally while success gets claimed internally, the empty restaurant and the owner who blames the neighborhood, and the sower whose seed failed three times out of four and who kept scattering anyway.

S10 Ep628: Stop Hiding Behind Your Trauma. It Was Not Your Fault And It Is Still Your Responsibility
**WHY YOU NEED TO WATCH THIS:**
What happened to you was real. What you have been doing with it is a separate question, and you have welded them together so nobody can touch the second without looking like they are attacking the first. This episode separates them and hands the second one back to you.
**WHAT THIS EPISODE COVERS:**
Why not your fault and still your responsibility are both permanently true and why treating them as mutually exclusive keeps people parked for decades, the difference between healing which has direction and evidence versus camping which has vocabulary and no movement, the neuroscience of plasticity and why avoidance maintains fear responses while gradual exposure updates them, why your nervous system runs on evidence rather than understanding, the broken leg from someone else's accident and the physical therapy you still have to do, and Joseph holding both you meant it for evil and God meant it for good without collapsing either one.

S10 Ep627: Everyone Can Tell You Are Playing Small
**WHY YOU NEED TO WATCH THIS:**
You think you are hiding it. People noticed years ago and decided saying it would be cruel. This episode gives you the honest read nobody in your life is willing to offer, the specific tells everyone can already see, and why the feedback you need most is the feedback you are structurally least likely to get.
**WHAT THIS EPISODE COVERS:**
The four visible tells of playing small that everyone around you already recognizes, why nobody will ever tell you since honest feedback is socially expensive with no reward for the person giving it, the science of unreliable self assessment and motivated reasoning and why politeness breaks the feedback loop that would normally correct your self estimate, the spinach in the teeth analogy and why the cruelty is in the two hours rather than the spinach, and Nathan telling David you are the man after David confidently condemned his own behavior in someone else.
