Feeling responsible for everyone and everything?

Tell me if this sounds familiar…

Someone always needs something from you, and everything feels important:

The kids. Your marriage. Your work. The chores. Your friendships. Your health. Your sleep.

You aren’t trying to juggle one important thing. You’re trying to juggle ten.

There may be more behind this than you realize

Some of the weight may actually come from hidden mindsets that make everything feel like it’s your responsibility.

The good news is that when you begin to recognize those patterns, it becomes much easier to decide what truly belongs on your plate—and what doesn’t.
