From her lived experience of parenting through hypervigilance to her professional insights into underfunded organizations and the cost of over-functioning, Faith names what so often goes unnamed—and offers a call to reimagine leadership and community care.\nShe examines the praise women receive for being the ones who “carry it all” and challenges us to question why we accept that role in the first place. She doesn’t just talk about asking for help—she explores what it would take to build systems of collective leadership and shared responsibility.\nThis is an unfiltered, heart-led exploration of burnout, vigilance, scarcity, and liberation. If you’ve ever felt like Atlas with the world on your shoulders, this episode is your permission slip to set it down.\nDiscussed in this episode:\nThe hidden costs of hypervigilance, especially in parenting and solo caregiving\nHow race, gender, and nonprofit hierarchies intersect to under-resource women\nThe emotional toll of being the go-to person (the “Luisa” of your world)\nWhy naming invisible labor is a radical act\nHow we begin moving from lone heroism to collective leadership\n\n💪 PROUD MEMBERS OF THE FEMINIST PODCAST COLLECTIVE: http://feministpodcastcollective.com/","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/GBHLYfR1d8vTP6gl28L07YDfK_AQkV3CJwsWm3AU-rM/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9hNDE0/MTQ4YzMwYzNlM2Ix/YjIwMzY3NTZlMWIz/OWQ3ZC5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
