There’s a difference between being there for someone and carrying them, and sometimes that line gets especially blurry when family is involved.

In this episode of Soft Talk Hard Truths, Jay and Shay talk about the complicated side of helping the people we love. Jay opens up about navigating a changing relationship with a parent, the toll of spending years in survival mode, and the difficult question of what happens when someone else’s choices continually become your responsibility.

The conversation expands into the complicated relationship between parents and their adult children, why some people struggle to accept help while constantly giving it to others, and how being “the giver” can slowly leave you with nothing for yourself.

Because helping people is a good thing. Loving your family is a good thing. Being there when someone needs you is a good thing.

But when helping someone else consistently comes at the expense of your own peace, finances, future, or well-being, eventually you have to ask:

When does helping start hurting?

Jay and Shay get into boundaries, responsibility, self-preservation, healing from family, and learning that sometimes being a good person doesn’t require sacrificing yourself in the process.
