Ep47 Why Your Biggest Strength Is Secretly Destroying Your Life (The Empath's Dilemma)
Manage episode 503830226 series 3508491
Patricia used to be proud of never saying no.
Like, genuinely PROUD of it.
She'd give her last dollar, her last hour, her last ounce of energy to anyone who needed it. And she wore that generosity like a badge of honor.
Until she realized something terrifying...
Her beautiful, generous heart was literally being used against her.
In this raw episode of Magnificence, Patricia and Jason dive deep into something most of us empaths don't want to admit:
Our need to help everyone might actually be slowly killing us.
Not in a dramatic way. But in that quiet, soul-draining way where you wake up exhausted from giving so much of yourself away that there's nothing left.
Patricia gets brutally honest about her relationship with a covert narcissist who treated her generosity like an all-you-can-eat buffet. And Jason breaks down why certain people seem to have a GPS for finding the givers... and taking everything they've got.
But here's what makes this episode different:
They're not telling you to stop being kind. They're showing you how to protect your beautiful heart while still being the amazing person you are.
Patricia shares her "sacred geometry" technique that literally helped her visualize her way back to healthy boundaries. And Jason brings up Patricia's game-changing "24-hour helping fast" that might just be the energetic break you need.
If you've ever felt like you're constantly bending over backwards for people who never seem satisfied... or if you recognize yourself as the friend who always pays, always listens, always fixes...
This one's going to hit different.
Fair warning: You might ugly cry. But in the best possible way.
