In this episode, we dive into the invisible load that many diplomatic and expat partners silently carry; the emotional, logistical, and identity-based weight that often goes unseen. We explore how being labelled a "dependent" can slowly chip away at your self-esteem, even when life looks “picture perfect” from the outside.

✨ You'll hear:

• Why this hidden burden is so real (and so common)
• How the language we use can shape our self-worth
• What you can start doing today to support yourself more consciously and compassionately

This one’s for anyone who’s ever felt unseen in their role, unsure of their identity, or quietly carrying more than they realise. You’re not alone and your story matters. 💛
