Note sull'episodio

This week’s episode is for the people who are exhausted from abandoning themselves in the name of being “good,” loyal, understanding, forgiving, or easy to love.

This wasn’t a normal rut. It wasn’t “if I fixed my routine” or “if my life looked different.” It was deeper than that. It was the kind of spiral that makes you question your entire existence and whether you’re even lovable as a person.

In therapy this week, I realized I’ve spent years stuck between two values: honesty and loyalty. And almost every time, I chose loyalty even when it meant betraying myself.

Today we’re talking about what happens when two core values collide, why breaking old patterns can feel guilty instead of empowering, and how to tell the difference between being selfish and finally being honest.

If you’ve ever called yourself “loyal to a fault,” this episode might explain why you feel so emotionally stuck.
