The Hero Who Forgot to Save Himself | Anchorage News
About this episode
This brother’s been the family’s rock since dad left—dependable, heroic, but now running on empty. Two years of financial pressure, a wife struggling with depression, and company layoffs have him working nonstop, sacrificing his own well-being. Once a runner who used exercise to unwind, he’s lost that escape—and forgotten he deserves care too. The key? Help him see self-care isn’t selfish. Tell him you miss seeing him do something just for himself, then offer real support: take a task off his plate, schedule a coffee date, or remind him that resting won’t abandon anyone. He can’t carry everyone forever.
