Who Told You That? | Solo Episode with Lisa Lacy
Episode description as stored
Who told you that you were too sensitive, too difficult, selfish, dramatic, unstable, or simply too much? And when did someone else’s opinion become part of your identity?
In this solo episode of Notes From the Edge , trauma educator Lisa Lacy explores how labels, family roles, survival adaptations, and other people’s perceptions can quietly become the stories we tell ourselves about who we are, and what can happen when we finally question who handed us those stories in the first place.
Lisa examines the difference between personality and adaptation, why competence can become armor, and how a label can stop an investigation before it ever begins. She also shares how this question has surfaced while writing Notes From a Certified Madwoman , now autofiction, and why sometimes finding yourself is less about becoming someone new and more about subtracting everybody else.
In this episode:
How childhood and relationship labels can become identity
“Too sensitive,” “difficult,” “selfish,” and the power of labeling
Competence as strength versus competence as survival armor
Why boundaries can feel threatening to people who benefited from your compliance
Family roles, scapegoating, and resistance when one person changes
The difference between accountability and self-erasure
Survival adaptations that become adult personality traits
Why proving a label wrong can still allow it to control your life
What happens when you enter an environment where you are no longer “too much”
The question that can interrupt an old identity: Who told you that?
