 In this episode we’re talking about generosity without self-abandonment - how to give freely without giving yourself away.

This conversation gets into the real stuff: overgiving, resentment, receiving support, knowing your worth, and recognizing when generosity stops feeling good and starts feeling draining. We explore how many of us were conditioned to be helpful, selfless, and strong - but not always taught how to receive, ask for support, or set boundaries that protect our energy.

From relationships to business to everyday emotional labor, this episode is a raw look at what it means to be generous without disappearing in the process.

If you’ve ever found yourself overextending, under-receiving, or questioning whether your giving is coming from love or obligation, this one will hit.
