Strength Is Overrated

from Thrive with Joy · host Christin Smallwood

Have you ever been called “the strong one” and didn’t know whether to feel proud or just exhausted?In this episode, we unpack one of the most celebrated —yetpotentially harmful —identities we carry. We explore how overexposure to trauma could be a blind spot that is often mistaken for resilience, the hidden cost of always being the "hero," and how to redefine strength in a way thatactually allows you to heal.
