About this episode
What do we actually owe the people in our lives?
Not every relationship carries the same responsibilities. A close friend, a partner, a parent, a coworker, and a stranger can all matter to us—but the expectations, boundaries, and responsibilities we have toward each person aren't necessarily the same.
In this episode, we explore how the nature of a relationship should shape what we expect from each other, where responsibility begins and ends, and why treating every relationship the same can create resentment, confusion, and unrealistic expectations.
Sometimes the healthiest thing you can do is understand what a relationship actually is before deciding what you owe it.
