Do you ever feel like you have to do everything on your own? Like asking for help means you’re weak, needy, or a burden? That’s hyper-independence—and while it can make us look “strong” on the outside, it often leaves us exhausted and disconnected on the inside.
In this episode, I unpack:
What hyper-independence really is (and how it’s different from healthy independence)
The hidden reasons so many of us fall into this pattern
How it shows up in our relationships, work, and everyday life
Gentle steps to start letting support in without losing your sense of self
You don’t have to keep carrying it all alone. By the end of this walk, you’ll feel seen—and maybe even ready to share a little of the load.

A psychology podcast made to move with you.
Hosted by psychologist Maz Miller, each episode takes a closer look at topics such as anxiety, overthinking, burnout, motivation, relationships, emotional wellbeing and the connection between movement, nature and mental health.
Drawing on psychological research, clinical experience and real-world questions, Walking Session makes psychology thoughtful, practical and easy to take with you.
Some episodes explore what the research tells us. Others question ideas we often take for granted. And sometimes, we simply look at why we do the things we do.
