The Dangerous Part About Being Capable | Built, Not Given™

from Built, Not Given™ · host Jake Strickland

There’s a side of being capable that people don’t really talk about.When you know you can handle pressure, take on responsibility, survive hard seasons, and figure things out… it becomes very easy to keep stacking more onto your plate. More goals. More work. More expectations. More pressure.And eventually, the very thing that made you strong starts wearing you down.In this episode, I talk about the trap high-functioning people fall into, why strength can sometimes hide problems, and the importance of auditing your life before your ambition starts running your entire existence.Just because you CAN carry something doesn’t always mean you SHOULD.Connect with me - Jake-Strickland.com
