Showing Up Matters
from Living on the Virg Podcast
In this episode, I talk about something I’ve been thinking about a lot lately: showing up. Showing up for birthdays and hard conversations… for family and friendships… and for yourself. Because showing up is powerful — but if we’re not paying attention, it can slowly turn into over-functioning, resentment, and depletion.We’ll unpack the difference between showing up and over-functioning, the quiet pain of being “the one,” and how to redirect your energy toward what’s aligned, reciprocated, and peaceful. I’m also sharing three simple questions I ask myself in real time before I say yes — so my showing up stays chosen, not compulsive. #LivingOnTheVirg #ShowingUpMatters #Overfunctioning #Boundaries #EmotionalHealth #Midlife #SelfWorth #Friendships #Marriage #PersonalGrowth #NervousSystem #PeaceFollow up on YouTube!
