We’ve all been there—standing in a crowded room or a quiet kitchen, feeling that sudden, sharp realization that we are just a backup plan. This week, we are unpacking the painful difference between being loved for your convenience versus being chosen for your identity.

Why do we constantly perform for people who treat us like an option? We talk about the trap of romanticizing "potential," the exhaustion of corporate loyalty, and why setting boundaries will suddenly make you look "difficult" to the people who used to exploit your silence. It's time to stop holding the rope until your hands bleed.
