239. Caregiver Resentment Is Real

Send us a text

Caregiving isn’t just about love. It’s about expectations, exhaustion, and the quiet unraveling that happens when your needs are always last.

In this episode, Anna and Tim crack open the emotional reality of caregiving; the roles we take on, the ones we’re handed, and how they can feel good until they don’t. Join them as they name what rarely gets said: the burnout, the self-erasure, and the resentment that builds when care turns into obligation.

This Episode Covers:

• Why saying “I don’t want to” can feel impossible
• The tension between love and emotional depletion
• How caregiving identities can slowly consume you
• Performing capacity vs actually having it
• Feeling like it’s never your turn
• Rage, withdrawal, and the need to be witnessed
• Why resentment doesn’t make you unloving
• Letting go of the fantasy of being the “good one”

Until next time, here's to deeper connections and personal growth.
Mad love!
