About this listen

In this episode, we dive into how easy it is to absorb the behaviour of the people around you — especially when you’re around them 24/7. Sometimes draining people enter our lives looking vulnerable or needing help, but their insecurities, control issues, and emotional dependence can slowly shape us in ways we don’t notice.

We talk about the early signs that someone is projecting onto you, how “helping” can turn into losing yourself, and why taking breaks is essential when you can’t fully distance yourself. Most importantly, we explore how isolation can make you vulnerable to someone else’s behaviour — and why staying close to the people who truly know and comfort you is key to protecting your identity and peace

If you’ve ever felt drained, reshaped, or unlike yourself around certain people, this episode is your reminder to protect your energy, trust your instincts, and stay grounded in who you are.
