YOU ARE
The Friendly Therapist Replacement
Your relational strength is that you’re the emotional rock. Your superpower is making people feel seen, heard, and understood like they can bring their whole messy selves to you.
Your sneaky saboteur is being an emotional sponge. You tend to absorb others’ emotions and burdens. It’s no surprise you find yourself drained or overwhelmed.
here’s what you can do for you
Practice letting go of what isn’t yours. When someone shares their struggles, remind yourself that you can care without carrying it. Protecting your emotional energy doesn’t make you less empathetic—it keeps you grounded.
Repeat this affirmation
“I can step back from other people’s stories and lean into my own life.”
