In this episode, we unpack what it feels like to be the “responsible one” while quietly feeling trapped. She is a mum of three, working full time, carrying financial pressure, supporting her husband’s dream job and pay cuts, yet feeling terrified to spend money on herself and shut down every time she talks about changing her own career. We talk about financial control versus financial responsibility, resentment that builds when dreams feel one sided, and the mental load of being the steady one while your own needs get postponed. If you have ever felt unseen, stuck, or like your happiness is always the five year plan, this conversation will feel validating, confronting and deeply empowering
