Ep# 26 Don't Confuse Caring With Carrying

Mostly Functional · Apr 23, 2026 · 40m

In this episode, we unpack the difference between caring deeply and carrying everything. We explore how easy it is to slip into over-responsibility, especially when the work matters so much. We talk about the pressure to do it all, the mental chatter that comes with it, and how to start separating what's actually yours from what's shared or not yours at all. This conversation is a reminder that you can care deeply without burning out, and that sometimes the most powerful shift is remembering… you get to do this.
