Always the calm one? The fixer? The peacekeeper? When empathy goes unchecked, it can become a trap—especially in toxic relationship dynamics. In this episode, Rebecca explores how emotional labor turns into self-abandonment and why sensitivity isn't the problem. Learn how to stop shrinking yourself to stay safe and start reclaiming your boundaries, your voice, and your peace.

Rebecca Hunter, MSW helps empathic high-achievers (like you) learn practical skills to quiet your racing mind, overcome self-doubt, and actually be present in your life.
