The Invisible Burden of Being “The Strong One”:
These are the people who are seen as strong, reliable, and capable. The ones others turn to, depend on, and lean on. And while they may look like they have it together on the outside, inside, they’re exhausted. Overwhelmed. Running on fumes.

They’ve learned to be the person everyone can count on—but somewhere along the way, they forgot that they, too, deserve care.

If you’re always the one holding everything together, you may be carrying too much. Learn why letting go isn’t weakness—it’s strength. A therapist’s perspective on burnout, boundaries, and self-care.

In The Company Of Women by January Gill-O’Neil [Excerpt]
“Make me laugh over coffee,
make it a double, make it frothy
so it seethes in our delight.
Make my cup overflow
with your small happiness.
I want to hoot and snort and cackle and chuckle.
Let your laughter fill me like a bell.
Let me listen to your ringing and singing
as Billie Holiday croons above our heads.”

Unlocking Us With Brene Brown — Podcast episode: Big Friendship

"Many of us believe that friendships should be easy and require little effort, when, in reality, we can’t have any meaningful relationships without putting in meaningful work. And that’s not always easy."

I’m talking with first-time authors and even longer-time friends, Aminatou Sow and Ann Friedman, about their book, Big Friendship: How We Keep Each Other Close, and why the lack of meaningful, intimate, vulnerable friendships is almost a crisis right now.

Red Brocade by Naomi Shihab Nye [Excerpt]
“The Arabs used to say,
When a stranger appears at your door,
feed him for three days
before asking who he is,
where he’s come from,
where he’s headed.
That way, he’ll have strength
enough to answer.
Or, by then you’ll be
such good friends
you don’t care.”

We know the importance of quality time in romantic relationships; what about friendships?
