The Armor You Were Taught to Wear
You don’t ask for help. You figure it out.
You pride yourself on being low maintenance. You keep everything moving—because who else will?
You’ve been the strong one. The dependable one.
The one who holds everyone and everything together.
But lately, the cracks are showing.
The fatigue. The loneliness. The quiet question creeping in:
What would it feel like to not carry it all?
Hyper-Independence Isn’t Empowerment—It’s Protection
For many women of color, hyper-independence isn’t a personality trait.
It’s a survival strategy.
You may have learned to go it alone because of:
- Early caretaking or responsibility
- Betrayals of trust or abandonment
- Cultural pressure to be “strong” and never needy
- Being punished for expressing needs or emotions
Strength became your safety.
Silence became your shield.
But your nervous system wasn’t built for constant isolation.
When Independence Turns Into Overwhelm
You might notice hyper-independence showing up as:
- Overcommitting because asking for help feels unsafe
- Feeling guilty for resting or receiving support
- Avoiding emotional intimacy or vulnerability
- Saying “I got it” even when you’re drowning
This isn’t a flaw—it’s a sign your body has been in survival mode for too long.
You Were Made for Connection, Not Just Survival
You don’t have to white-knuckle your way through life.
You were meant to:
- Rest without guilt
- Be supported without shame
- Receive without proving
And your nervous system can learn how.
