In this bold and deeply empowering episode of Tea with Dee, Delynn Miller dives into one of the most uncomfortable, yet transformative, truths you'll ever hear: prioritizing yourself isn't selfish — it's sacred.


If you've been conditioned to believe that putting yourself first makes you a bad partner, parent, or friend, this conversation will flip your entire script. Delynn breaks down the math of self-sacrifice (spoiler: you're running at negative 550%), why our brains are wired to seek approval at our own expense, and how generational patterns keep us stuck in survival mode.


You'll learn:



  • Why love isn't sacrifice and self-care isn't selfish

  • How people-pleasing is actually a survival strategy from childhood

  • The flight attendant rule: why putting your mask on first saves everyone

  • Exact scripts for setting boundaries without feeling like the villain

  • How to set non-negotiables that are truly non-negotiable


This episode is your reminder that choosing yourself in a world that demands your compliance is an act of rebellion. You're not selfish for protecting your peace. You're just done shrinking.
