Why They Resent You for Being Capable
About this episode
You're so good at making difficult things look manageable that people have stopped believing the difficult things are actually difficult.
They see you handle it. They see you do it well. They see you make it work. And somewhere along the way, they forgot that it's hard.
They forgot that what you're doing takes everything you have. They just see a woman who can do anything. And then they resent you for it.
In this episode, I'm naming what happens when your competence makes your labor invisible. The resentment from both sides. The cost to your native self. And how THE SORT Method helps you start letting people see the difficulty.
This is about being witnessed in your full humanity—capable and tired, strong and struggling, managing and asking for help.
You don't have to make it look easy. You just have to be seen.
You were never too much. The room was just too small.™
