Human(ing) Well with Amber Cabral

How to Recognize One-Sided Relationships (And What to Do About It)


Listen Later

Are you always the one who checks in first, plans the hangouts, or gives the most – but no one ever checks on you? You might be in a one-sided relationship, and it’s time to talk about it.

In this episode of Human(ing) Well, Amber breaks down how to spot imbalance in your relationships… not just romantic ones, but friendships, work dynamics, and even family. She opens up about her own experiences as a natural giver and what happens when generosity turns into exhaustion. Amber shares practical ways to rebalance your relationships, start important conversations, and protect your energy without guilt or resentment.

You’ll learn how to:
✅ Identify when a connection has become one-sided
✅ Have honest, non-confrontational conversations about imbalance
✅ Step back with grace and reduce access where needed
✅ Let go of people who only take without giving
✅ Recognize and nurture the relationships that truly refill you
