Stop calling it a boundary if you let people walk over it. That’s not a boundary. That’s a welcome mat.

They only love you when you’re useful.
The moment you stop showing up for their needs, they stop showing up for yours.
You’re not distant. You’re drained. And that silence should have been a signal, but they missed it.
I just dropped a new post on Substack for every giver who’s tired of bleeding for people who won’t even bring a Band-Aid.

People don’t tune in for your wins. They tune in for your drama.
But here’s the truth: your life isn’t a highlight reel for their entertainment.
Keep your wins quiet. Protect your peace.

Ever feel like you care more about their healing than they do?
You give advice. You show up. You pray.
And yet… they keep choosing chaos.
It’s not your job to save people who aren’t trying.

Your confidence dips.

Not every storm is meant to be solved.
Some are meant to be survived.
You’re not weak for being tired...
You might just be swinging your sword in a season that’s asking for surrender, not a fight.
💭 If you’re feeling worn out, ask yourself:
“Is this a battle I’m meant to win or a storm I’m meant to outlast?”
🗡️ Sometimes peace is the strategy.
Not the sword.
