In this episode of Mamahood After Trauma, host Emily Cleghorn introduces the powerful concept of "energetic overdraft" — the exhausting cycle of giving more than you have.

Speaking directly to trauma survivors who became "the strong one," Emily explores how hyper-independence, people-pleasing, and fear of disappointing others silently drain our reserves.

With honesty and compassion, she challenges listeners to examine where they're overspending their energy and reminds them that strength doesn't require carrying everything alone.

This episode is an inspiring invitation to choose awareness, embrace rest without guilt, and begin reclaiming yourself — one small, courageous decision at a time. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
