In this episode, I explore why taking care of yourself can feel indulgent or selfish and how that guilt was strategically taught to keep you useful to everyone but yourself. We unpack how being socialised as female encourages self-erasure, how workplaces and families rely on invisible labour, and why the people around you are trained to expect you to smooth over tensions. I also cover how to protect your capacity without inadvertently shifting burdens onto others and why doing this work is a political act that models new possibilities for collective care.
