| 0:00.0 | Hey, everyone. Welcome to Heal, Survive, and Thrive. I am sitting here just had lunch. So we have energy right now. It is a beautiful fall day. And I love having these chats with you guys. And I wanted to talk this week about, you know, I was sitting and I was thinking about the simple fact that for me, I have always been the go-to person. |
| 0:27.1 | I've always been the go-to person in my family. |
| 0:30.6 | I feel like majority of my friends had always come to me for advice or a favor or I'm just, I've always been that kind of person. |
| 0:41.2 | And I think sometimes we can wear this, I'm the go-to person with a badge of honor. |
| 0:47.2 | We look at it like we're so needed, we're so valued, where, you know, everyone wants to be around us everyone needs something from us so that must mean we're doing something right and it's while it's a great quality because it probably means you're also a really good person and you do care and you want to help it can also be something that you've just trained people to do you've trained people |
| 1:12.8 | to realize that you are the person that they can go to for every little anything |

| 1:45.1 | person that gets the late text message at night because someone needs advice or someone needs help |
| 1:50.7 | and you respond and you pick up. You're the one person who is going to step in and fix things |
| 1:57.2 | and handle people's problems and make everything better and you're going to help with |
| 2:03.2 | anything that someone needs and you know you can nine times out of ten I know me I can handle |
| 2:09.8 | emergencies really well like if something starts you know shit's hitting the fan like I'm |
| 2:14.9 | full on I'm there I got it I'm organized I am that |
| 2:17.7 | person so you're now the go-to person whenever someone needs you because this is again |
| 2:22.9 | this is how you've just trained everyone the problem is is that you get burnt out you |
| 2:28.4 | get resentful you get exhausted you know your nervous system gets hijacked for sure |
