Strengths and themes to explore
Thoughtfulness, follow-through and attention to shared wellbeing are themes of 6. Care can be practical: a meal, a kept promise or asking someone what kind of help they would actually welcome.
Challenges and balance
Responsibility can become over-responsibility. Notice when helping turns into managing another person's choices, or when being needed feels like the only way to belong. Your own needs deserve a place in the arrangement.
Relationships and communication
Ask before stepping in to fix a problem. Let another person be capable, even when their approach differs from yours. Receiving support can be as important as offering it.
Work and personal direction
Reflect on how care is distributed in a team. Mentoring and coordination are valuable contributions, but they need realistic boundaries and recognition rather than an expectation that you will always absorb the extra work.
A practical reflection exercise
Offer one specific act of support, then make one specific request for yourself. Keep both small enough that they can be answered honestly.
Where would a boundary make my care more sustainable?
