The Line Between Selfless and Self-Destructive: Why Helping Doesn’t Mean Losing Yourself

In this episode, I reflect on an important realization in my journey—the distinction between being selfless and losing oneself. It’s noble to be selfless, but when we lie down in the muck and mire with others, we risk our own well-being. Through my story and insights, I’ll explore how to walk the line between compassion and self-destruction, and why the world needs each of us to stay strong.

We are proof that resilience is possible, and our strength can be the light that keeps us—and others—moving forward. Join me as I discuss the power of standing tall in the face of hardship, reclaiming your life, and finding the courage to rise above.

Your story matters, so live it courageously!
