The Strong One Syndrome: When Supporting Everyone Else Leaves You Drained
Manage episode 517540179 series 3300361
Are you the one everyone leans on — but secretly running on empty?
In this episode, I explore the hidden cost of “being the strong one” and why peace in relationships begins when we stop overgiving and start allowing support. You’ll learn how to shift from quiet resentment to interdependence, creating genuine connection without losing yourself in the process.
This conversation is part of November’s Peace with People theme — where we’re healing family dynamics through gratitude and grace.
✨ Listen to discover:
Why emotional strength doesn’t mean carrying everyone else
How sensitivity can turn into over-responsibility (and how to stop)
The role of ancestral patterns in how we show up for others
Simple steps to restore peace and connection in your relationships
