There's a difference between caring about someone and carrying them. Caring means showing up with love and presence. Carrying means absorbing their moods, solving their problems, and spending days recovering from a single conversation.

If you're a natural empath — the person everyone turns to, the one who feels other people's pain like it's your own — this workbook was written for you. It helps you see exactly where the line is between healthy support and emotional self-sacrifice, and gives you a clear system for getting back on the right side of it.

You don't have to choose between being caring and protecting yourself. You just need better tools.
