In this episode of The Daily Cafecito, we’re talking about something a lot of us struggle with — seeing people for who they could be instead of who they actually are.
As the oldest daughter, I’ve spent a lot of my life feeling responsible for fixing people, holding it together, and carrying emotional weight that was never meant to be mine. But there comes a point where helping turns into over-giving, and love turns into self-abandonment.
We’re breaking down:
• Why we romanticize people’s potential
• The difference between setting boundaries vs cutting people off
• When it’s time to stop waiting for change
• What it really means to meet someone halfway
• And why boundaries can feel especially complicated in Mexican families
If you’ve ever felt drained, disappointed, or stuck waiting for someone to become the version you know they could be — this episode is for you.
