Charlotte Bailey 64 Episodes Aug 6, 2026

She Is Here™, formerly known as 'Let's Talk People-Pleasing! with Charlotte Bailey', is a podcast for women who often feel they are 'too much' — too sensitive, too emotional, too dramatic — and never quite enough. It explores how patterns like people-pleasing, overthinking, perfectionism, masking, anxiety, and self-doubt are not mindset failures but intelligent survival responses shaped by trauma, attachment, conditioning, and relationships. Hosted by Charlotte Bailey, an accredited trauma-informed psychotherapist, speaker, and spoken-word poet, the show combines psychology, neuroscience, lived experience, and poetry to address the element mainstream self-help often overlooks: safety in the nervous system and in the world. The focus is on understanding these patterns on a deeper, more felt level rather than just gaining insight.
