How to be there for people without losing yourself
Update: 2025-12-08
Description
I’ve always been a giver—emotionally, financially, mentally. I love being there for people I care about. But at one point in my life, it started draining me. So I did what the internet tells you to do:
“Protect your energy.”
But I went too far.
Way too far.
In this raw, honest episode, I open up about how setting boundaries turned into emotional avoidance. I cut off people who cared about me. I shut down from friends and family. I mistook coldness for healing. And in the process, I hurt people—not because they were toxic, but because I was overwhelmed.
If you’ve ever struggled with giving too much… or protecting your peace a little too aggressively… this episode is for you.
