If you’ve ever left a conversation thinking, “Why did I say all that?”… this episode is for you!!

In this episode of The Road Leads Back to Me, Coral breaks down what oversharing really is, why it happens, and how it can actually be a form of self-harm.

Oversharing often comes from a desire to connect, belong, and feel seen—but when it happens too quickly or with the wrong people, it can leave you feeling exposed, regretful, and even taken advantage of.

Coral dives into:

• Why oversharing is often a trauma response
• The connection between anxious attachment and over-disclosure
• The key difference between vulnerability and oversharing
• How sharing too much too soon gives people leverage over you
• Why “proximity does not equal safety”
• The red flags to look for when someone isn’t reciprocating
• How people can weaponize your story or use it as “gossip currency”
• Practical tools to stop oversharing and protect your energy

Through real-life examples and a trauma-informed lens, Coral introduces a simple but powerful tool:
WAIT — Why Am I Talking?

Because not everyone deserves access to your story.

And your vulnerability should be earned—not given away. Period.
