In this personal episode, Esther opens her heart about what it meant to grow up as “the strong one” — the child who was expected to understand, to hold it together, and to need less. She shares how this pattern followed her into adulthood, helping her survive her divorce and raise her two sons, but later limiting her in relationships where she longed for emotional balance and softness.
Esther reflects on how strength can become both a shield and a prison — and how real healing begins when we allow ourselves to be fragile, to receive care, and to be loved for who we are, not for how much we can handle.
At the end of the episode, Esther offers listeners the opportunity to connect with her for one-on-one coaching — a gentle and empowering space to release old patterns and step into a freer, more authentic version of yourself. Book it here:
