Episode 18 - The Cost of Being 'The Strong One'

from One Life Matters · host Trish Peterson

This episode explores the hidden burden of being the dependable one who holds everything together. Through personal stories of childhood parentification and hyper‑vigilance, we unpack how early survival roles become adult patterns like people‑pleasing and over‑functioning, and why strength often masks exhaustion, loneliness, and unmet needs.
