What Your Body Might Be Carrying When You Swallow Your Words at Work | With Chanlee Sutoyo
Episode Description
What happens when your body starts carrying everything your voice never got to say?
In this episode of Rooted in Your Confidence, Samantha Kaye Harris sits down with Chanlee Sutoyo, former government trial attorney and creator of Rage on the Page, to talk about emotional suppression, chronic pain, and the healing power of journaling.
For more than a decade, Chanlee lived with unexplained chronic pain. Doctors ran tests. MRIs came back mostly normal. Treatments helped temporarily, but nothing truly solved the problem.
Then she discovered something that changed everything.
Her body wasn’t broken. It was holding years of swallowed words.
Through a journaling practice she calls rage journaling, Chanlee began writing the truth she had been holding inside. Anger. Grief. Disappointment. The promotion she never received. The pressure of working in a high-stakes legal environment.
Within weeks, something shifted.
In this conversation, Samantha and Chanlee explore what happens when women finally give themselves permission to tell the truth — especially women working in male-dominated industries like construction, trades, aviation, and transportation.
Because confidence doesn’t come from pretending everything is fine.
It comes from releasing what you’ve been carrying.
In this episode we talk about:
• Why emotional suppression can show up as physical pain
• What it feels like to work in high-pressure environments where composure is expected every day
• The connection between people-pleasing, perfectionism, and chronic stress
• What “rage journaling” is and how it helps women release suppressed emotions
• How writing the truth can help women reconnect with their voice and confidence
• Why healing is a leadership conversation, not just a wellness one
If you’ve ever swallowed your words at work just to survive the environment, this conversation will resonate with you.
