📝 Episode Summary: Relationships thrive on balance—but when one person consistently gives more than the other can (or will) return, collapse is inevitable. In this episode, Tina White takes us on a deep dive into why imbalanced relationships form, why they drain us, and how to reposition people instead of resenting them.
This conversation is rooted in personal story, reflection, and practical insight on how to build healthier dynamics in friendships, family, romance, and even professional life.
