Description

“You deserve to be loved for who you are fully, not just for the way that you love someone else.” 

Welcome back to Human(Ing) Well. 

In this deeply personal episode, Amber confesses a hard truth: some people don’t actually love you — they just love how you love them. Drawing from recent life changes, Amber shares three (3) signs of one-sided relationships, the subtle red flags you might overlook, and how to set boundaries without losing yourself. She then reminds us: “Relationships in any form should be places where you can give and receive, where you can be seen and valued, and it [should] not be a place where you are always having to pour out to get anything.” 

Discover how to spot conditional love, reclaim your energy, and create space for mutual care and respect. 

Whether in friendships, romantic partnerships, or work connections, this episode is for you.
