Why this guide matters

Support should have shape, language, and limits.

  1. 01
    Name your capacity.

    Before you commit, pause long enough to ask what you actually have to give.

  2. 02
    Separate care from carrying.

    You can love people, support people, and still refuse to become responsible for everything they are holding.

  3. 03
    Practice brave language.

    Use clear words that protect your peace without making you cold.
