There is a version of resentment that looks like aggressively scrubbing a plate that did nothing wrong. Or snapping at a question that was not actually loaded. Or lying awake, mildly offended, with nothing specific to blame. That is resentment. And it never asks for permission before it shows up.

In this episode, I get honest about what I learned in a season when I said yes to everything, smiled through it all, and slowly disappeared in the process. Resentment is not proof that you are difficult. It is doing its job. And its job is to get your attention.
