The Drama Triangle, Male Friendship & Rescuer Fatigue

from The Love, Lizzy Podcast · host Love, Lizzy

What happens when the strong one finally puts herself first?This week I sit with a woman from our community who has been carrying everyone else since she was a little girl. She is exhausted from having her boundaries crossed by the men in her life, feeling unseen in her family, and never once being asked what she needs. And she finally asks the question so many of us are afraid to ask out loud. Do I get to be the one who is taken care of?We explore the drama triangle and the rescuer role, go down memory lane to share the roadmap for what love and support from the men in your life should actually look like, and offer multiple things you can do in the moment to hear your own boundaries more clearly, shift the attention back onto your own needs without the guilt, and move through the world relying completely on your intuition.Listen and subscribe at lovelizzy.co Follow on Instagram at instagram.com/lovelizzy
