Are you always the one people turn to — the “strong friend” who has it all together?

But here’s the real question:
When was the last time you let someone check on you?
When you never open up, are you really being a good friend — or just playing a role that hides your own needs?

In this powerful episode of Everybody Can’t Go Convos, Jessi explores the silent struggle of the emotionally strong, the fear behind vulnerability, and the cost of always being the one who “has it handled.”

You’ll learn:
💡 Why emotional strength can become emotional isolation
💡 How to recognize when you’re using helpfulness to avoid your own healing
💡 The difference between being supportive and being unavailable
💡 Signs that it’s time to let your friends in — for real

This conversation is a must-listen for anyone navigating deep friendships, emotional boundaries, and personal growth. Whether you're a strong friend or love one, this episode will challenge you to redefine what true connection looks like.

🎧 Listen if you’ve ever said:
“I’m fine” when you weren’t.
“I got it” when you didn’t.
“Don’t worry about me” when you were falling apart inside.
