When silence protects others, your truth stays hidden. In this episode, we talk about the core belief that you’re responsible for managing other people’s emotions and how it silently shapes your identity, relationships, and success. Through real stories and powerful insights, we show how this belief begins in childhood and festers into adulthood, keeping you small, anxious, and disconnected from yourself. If you’ve ever felt like your needs come last or that you can’t express how you feel, this one’s for you.
