Have you ever felt like everyone leans on you, but no one sees you?
You’re the one holding it all together. The strong one. The capable one. But when your chest feels tight, your jaw aches, or your energy crashes out of nowhere… no one asks if you’re okay. Not really.
This episode is for the mom who’s always being needed — but never being noticed. The one who keeps showing up even when her body is waving red flags. The one who’s done minimizing her needs, but isn’t sure how to start putting herself back on the list.
In this episode, you’ll learn:-
Why being “the strong one” can quietly burn you out
-
How survival mode shows up in your body (and why you ignore it)
-
What happens when emotional labor becomes a full-time, unpaid job
-
A powerful mindset shift to help you stop carrying it all alone
"You’re not fine — you’re functioning in overdrive." "Strength without support is a setup for burnout." "You deserve to be checked on too — not just counted on."
