In this episode, Jennie explores what it truly means to hold space - and how compassion fatigue quietly sets in when caring becomes a role, an identity, or an unspoken obligation. She also explains why energy hygiene is a must, not a luxury, for empaths, helpers, caregivers, leaders, and anyone who gives deeply.
With humor, heart, and grounded wisdom, Jennie unpacks the difference between presence and self-sacrifice, how emotional and energetic overload builds over time, and how to remain compassionate without absorbing what isn’t yours.
In this episode, Jennie guides you through:
- What holding space really means (and what it doesn’t)
- What compassion fatigue actually is — and why it’s not a failure
- How helpers become emotional and energetic containers
- Why rest alone doesn’t resolve depletion
- Why energy hygiene is non-negotiable for sensitive people
- Simple ways to care with capacity instead of collapse
This is a must-listen for anyone ready to protect their energy without closing their heart.
