That phrase sounds empowering—but is it always healthy? From an Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) lens, this episode unpacks how “you’re only responsible for yourself” is often misunderstood, misused, and sometimes harmful in relationships. We explore where the idea came from, how it’s meant to be used, and what emotional responsibility actually looks like when we’re wired for connection. A grounded, compassionate conversation about boundaries, accountability, grief, and staying human with one another.
