EP 15 | You’re Not Low Maintenance You Learned to Need Less

Send us Fan MailBeing “easygoing” gets praised.But sometimes it’s not peace.It’s protection.In this episode of Rebuilt Different, I unpack how being low-maintenance isn’t always personality — sometimes it’s something you learned.Learned from emotional rejection. From feeling like your needs were inconvenient. From shrinking early and getting good at staying small.We talk about performing chill in dating and friendships, why people-pleasing feels safer than honesty, and how your nervous system can wire “having needs” as danger.If you’ve ever been the supportive one who still felt invisible — or wondered why love never quite sticks — this one will hit.This episode is about rebuilding strength in a way that includes your needs.Because shrinking isn’t compatibility.And you’re not “too much.”You were just taught to need less.
