Are you really a low-maintenance friend… or have you just mastered the art of not needing anyone?
In this episode, we unpack the hidden truth behind the “low-maintenance” identity and how it often stems from emotional deprivation, survival mode, and conditioning that taught you not to expect support.
If you've ever been praised for being strong, independent, or “the one no one has to worry about,” this conversation will help you understand the cost of that survival strength and why you must surrender it to fully walk into your Esther Year.
✨ Ready to stop surviving and finally rest?

48. You’re Not The Low Maintenance Friend, You’re Just Used to Deprivation

Welcome to The Boss Babe Sanctuary, a faith-based podcast hosted by Michelle, a compassionate coach dedicated to helping strong women find true peace and purpose. This is more than just a podcast; it’s a healing community for women who’ve been carrying the weight of the world on their shoulders. Are you the one everyone leans on? The problem-solver? The ’strong friend’? While your strength is admirable, it might also be your greatest burden. Here, we explore the concept of ’survival strength’ - that relentless drive that’s gotten you this far, but may be holding you back from true fulfillment. Each episode is a safe space where we unpack the challenges of being a ’strong woman’ in today’s world. We dive deep into topics like breaking generational patterns, overcoming adversity, and learning to trust in God’s faithfulness. Through powerful conversations, biblical wisdom, and practical mindset tools, we’ll guide you from a place of exhausting self-reliance to divine empowerment. Join us as we journey together, retiring the ’survival mindset’ and stepping into the fullness of our God-given purpose and potential. Whether you’re just beginning to question your ’strong woman’ identity or you’re ready to embrace divine empowerment, The Boss Babe Sanctuary is your community for healing, growth, and transformation. Tune in to discover how to turn your strength from a burden into a blessing, and learn to lean on God’s divine empowerment. It’s time to prioritize your self-care and heal. You’ve been strong for everyone else - now it’s time to be strong for yourself, in a whole new way. With Love, -Coach Michelle
