In this week’s episode of the Real English Conversations Podcast, host Curtis Davies sits down with Jason Johnson, Emotional Freedom & Transformation Coach and author of Detrimental Kindness: How Not to Lose Yourself While Helping Others.

Jason helps people break free from over-giving, people-pleasing, and self-abandonment disguised as kindness. His work is about reclaiming boundaries, rediscovering your voice, and learning to live with confidence and emotional truth, not guilt or fear.

Through his powerful message and lived experience, Jason shares how to stop betraying yourself in the name of being “nice” and start living a life rooted in authenticity, clarity, and freedom.

✨ In this episode, Jason shares:

💬 What “detrimental kindness” really means — and why it’s so common for high achievers
🧠 How fear of judgment leads to self-silencing in relationships and workplaces
💪 Practical tools to build boundaries and emotional resilience
🌍 How to reconnect with your authentic self and communicate with confidence
💡 Why breaking free from over-helping leads to stronger, healthier connections

Whether you’re a professional who struggles to say “no,” or someone who constantly puts others first, this episode will help you recognize your worth and start setting boundaries that protect your energy and peace.
