One day I was sitting in my therapist’s office and was telling her that I felt like I had no purpose in my life anymore. I went on and on about how I felt like I was going through an identity crisis.

What she said next forever changed the way I viewed myself.

“Vasavi, you’re so busy overfunctioning in your other relationships that you’re too exhausted to even focus on your relationship with yourself.”

Total game-changer. I’d been so used to doing more in all my interactions with the people in my life that I had zero left to give to myself. No wonder I was being a martyr, feeling resentful, and felt like I had no sense of self anymore.

In this episode of Being Human with Vasavi, you’ll learn why we humans overfunction and how to start feeling like you have a purpose.
