Signals And Standards With Suzie
Tuesday, September 29, 2026 - 20 minutes
What happens when being the strong one becomes your identity? This episode of Signals and Standards with Suzie explores people-pleasing, emotional labour, self-silencing, parentification, and overfunctioning, and why always being capable can leave you exhausted, resentful, and disconnected from your own needs. If everyone counts on you, this conversation will help you ask a harder question: How much of what you’re carrying is actually yours?------------------------Have a question, want to talk about something from the episode, have an episode idea, want to be a guest on the show or want to drop in to say hi?
