Be Unmessablewith: The Podcast hosted by Josselyne Herman-Saccio

Here’s something that might sting a little. If you are constantly making excuses for someone’s behavior, you may be in love with your idea of them, not the actual person. In this episode of Be Unmessablewith the podcast, I’m talking about the subtle but exhausting habit of protecting relationships that are not real. Not just romantic relationships, but friendships, work dynamics, and family relationships where you are hiding parts of who you are in the name of keeping the peace.

When you hide yourself, it can feel like you are protecting the relationship, but what you are really doing is watering plastic plants. No matter how much energy, care, or love you pour in, they will never grow. I’ve worked with high achievers for decades who look wildly successful on the outside, but feel disconnected and lonely in their relationships. Control, perfectionism, and people pleasing may help you succeed professionally, but they quietly destroy intimacy. Performance is not connection. Pretending is exhausting. And the exhaustion does not come from work. It comes from hiding.

In this episode, you’ll learn:
How hiding parts of yourself creates the illusion of intimacy without real connection

Why making excuses for others is often protecting a fantasy, not a relationship

How social media trains us to mistake performance for closeness

What happens when you stop hiding and start showing up honestly

Real relationships do not require decoding, defending, or constant excuse making. They are clear, consistent, and reciprocal. The moment you stop watering plastic plants and start telling the truth, you give others permission to do the same. Connection does not come from perfection. It comes from presence. The question is not whether authenticity matters. The question is whether you are ready to stop protecting what is not real and start cultivating what actually is.

If you’ve ever said, “I’m not a public speaker,” this episode is going to flip the script.

You weren’t born afraid to speak. You were taught to perform, to hide, to present instead of be present. Today’s guest, Eduardo Placer, is on a mission to end that game for good and set you free to communicate like the leader you were born to be.

He went from being a stage actor stuck in a story of failure to building a global coaching business that helps leaders dismantle the fear, shame, and survival mode that hijacks their voice.

Eduardo doesn’t just teach you how to speak. He teaches you how to stand in who you are and be fully self-expressed in any room, on any stage, in any moment.

You’ll learn:
Why most speaking advice keeps you disconnected and overthinking

How to break free from the fear that makes you sound fake or freeze

The single word he made up that will forever change how you think about presentations

What it actually means to lead from “we” instead of “me”

This episode is about owning your voice, your impact, and your power to create. Not someday. Now.

So if you’re done shrinking, second-guessing, or settling for surviving when you’re here to lead, listen in. Then share it with everyone you know who’s playing small because they’re afraid to speak up.

The world doesn’t need more perfect presentations. It needs YOU.

If you have a big vision and you’re secretly exhausted trying to carry it alone, this conversation is for you.

Because the fastest way to kill a brilliant idea is not lack of money, lack of time, or lack of talent.It’s trying to be the hero.

Today, I’m breaking down the leadership shift that turns ideas into movements and burnout into freedom. This is about how to build with people, not for them, and why that distinction changes everything.

If you’re building a business, a nonprofit, a community, or a new initiative and you want it to grow without consuming your life, this episode will give you the framework.

What You’ll Learn
The fatal flaw of the “hero entrepreneur” and why it creates burnout instead of freedom

The difference between building for people and building with people

Why delegating tasks creates dependency, but inviting ownership creates momentum

The Vision Gathering method and how to use it to create real collaboration

When you tell people what to do, you get compliance.When you invite them into creation, you get commitment.

This episode shows you how to stop being the bottleneck and start being the visionary who creates space for others to step into leadership with you.

That’s how movements are built.That’s how freedom is created.And that’s how your vision starts serving your life instead of consuming it.

Stop being the hero.Start being the leader who empowers others to create with you.

Press play if you’re ready to stop carrying it all and start building something that actually lasts.

If you’ve been chasing health answers and still feel off, bloated, tired, moody, out of sync, this conversation will stop you in your tracks and put you back in the driver’s seat.

Because the problem isn’t just what you’re eating or how much you’re sleeping. The problem might be that your gut, the real command center of your body, is out of balance. And most traditional doctors are not trained to look there.

Today, I’m joined by Dr. Cynthia Barrett, a functional medicine expert who helps people transform their health from the inside out, literally starting in the gut. Her story is powerful. From running 60 miles a week and following every conventional health rule, to being so nutrient-depleted she bruised easily and could barely function. The solution was not more willpower. It was healing her gut and changing her entire approach to health.

If you’re tired of doing everything right and still not feeling like yourself, this episode will give you both hope and direction.

We talk about why food is more than fuel. It is information for your cells. Healing is not just about supplements, but about mindset, movement, and recovery. And how slowing down, listening to your body, and giving it the right support changes everything.

Here’s what you’ll walk away with:
The top three symptoms that signal gut imbalance

What happens when your body cannot absorb nutrients, and why that is more common than you think

How to keep a gut and mood journal and spot your real triggers

This isn’t about perfection. It’s about paying attention. Because your body is talking to you constantly. Most of us have just been trained to ignore it.

Press play if you're ready to stop outsourcing your health, start listening to your body, and build a gut-healthy mindset that makes everything else easier. Your healing starts here.
