Being the Strong One
from This is My Voice Hosted by Lora Tia
Who checks in on the person who checks on everyone else? In this heartfelt episode, Lora Tia unpacks the emotional cost of being “the strong one”—the fixer, the listener, the safe space. The one who’s always there for others, even when no one asks how they're really doing. From childhood patterns to cultural expectations, Lora reflects on the invisible weight carried by many. With honesty and compassion, she explores what it means to relax, and to finally say: I’m tired.
