The Roles You're Attached To Are Burning You Out — Here's How to Let Go Without Losing Love

You have built your identity around being a certain kind of parent. A certain kind of partner. A certain kind of professional. And the gap between who you are supposed to be and who you actually are on any given day is exhausting you in ways you cannot fully explain to anyone. That exhaustion is not about effort. It is about attachment — the unhealthy kind that turns roles into rigid identities and turns any deviation from them into failure. Mike Wood left a career as a CFO to become an emotional healing coach specifically because he lived that rigidity and found his way out of it — and what he shares about the difference between healthy passion and unhealthy attachment, the simple out-loud practice that begins releasing painful roles in real time, and how letting go of the perfect parent or perfect partner identity can actually deepen love rather than diminish it will change how you hold every role in your life. You can love deeply without gripping tightly. This episode shows you the difference.
