You ever check on the strong friend? The one who always shows up, leads the group, lifts everyone else? What if I told you they're drowning⊠and nobody sees it? This oneâs for the ones who never ask for help because they think theyâre not allowed to.
Â
Kyleeâs the rockâcaptain of her team, mentor to the crew, always grinding in silence. Sheâs also deaf. But thatâs never been the weight. The real battle? Pretending strength doesnât come with a cost.
This episode hits deep. Itâs about the emotional labor of being the one everyone counts on, and the silent collapse that happens when you believe asking for help makes you weak. If youâre carrying more than people see, this oneâs for you.
