This episode is for anyone who has been holding a lot for a long time — especially highly sensitive people, caregivers, and those whose lives are shaped around caring for others. We talk about what support actually feels like when you’re tired — and why advice, encouragement, or “help” can sometimes make things feel heavier instead of lighter. This isn’t an episode about fixing your life or figuring out next steps. It’s a gentle conversation about recognizing support as something that reduces the load, rather than adds to it. You can listen while resting, driving, or moving through your day. Nothing needs to be done afterward. This is part of the podcast series Building a Life That Supports You — a quiet space to explore what support, rest, and sustainability can look like when life is full.
