Strength shouldn't mean carrying everything alone
Woah. This headline stopped me in my tracks.
It’s something I hope more people consider. There really is a cost of always being the one people go to, but getting that same support.
THIS: “And over time, that “quiet strength” turns into loud expectations.”
So painfully true and beautifully said. Great post.
Thank you. Expectations is something therapy has helped me better navigate with family and friends. It can still feel overwhelming when you’re held to expectations you never agreed to.
