Just because you can endure something doesn’t mean it’s healthy, mature, or meant for you.

In this episode of Doses of Her, we explore the critical difference between tolerance and emotional capacity and why endurance is often mistaken for strength, patience, or growth.

You’ll learn how tolerance is rooted in survival and self-silencing, while capacity is built through emotional availability, honesty, boundaries, and self-trust. We talk about how many of us stay too long, accept too little, and call it maturity when it’s actually self-abandonment.

This episode is for anyone who:

• feels exhausted from “being strong”
• keeps tolerating inconsistency in relationships, work, or life
• senses their body tightening instead of expanding
• knows something has to change but hasn’t had the language for it

This is a conversation about learning to stop bracing and start building the capacity to hold what you actually desire.

Because growth isn’t about how much you can endure.
It’s about what you no longer need to tolerate.
