The Dark Side of Being the One Everyone Relies On

from Someone Gets Me Podcast · host Dianne A. Allen

What happens when being the capable one starts to cost you more than you can afford? In this episode of Someone Gets Me, Dianne A. Allen gets honest about something that rarely gets talked about in neurodivergent and gifted spaces: the dark side. The emotional exhaustion of always being the one everyone turns to. The loneliness that comes with being seen as strong. The quiet burnout of carrying everyone else while secretly wishing someone would just carry something for you. This episode is for the ones who hold everything together and wonder why it still feels so heavy.   Watch the Someone Gets Me Podcast - The Dark Side of Being the One Everyone Relies On   Did you enjoy this episode?
