Why is it that the oldest sibling always seems to end up with the longest to-do list and the shortest fuse for chaos? In this episode, we’re unpacking the invisible backpack that comes with being the first-born.
We dive deep into the specific (and often exhausting) dynamics of "First-Born Energy." One of us shares the general weight of being the family pioneer, while the other breaks down the unique, layered pressure of being the First-Born Daughter—the unpaid family therapist, the event coordinator, and the "fixer" who never clocked out.
Whether you’re the eldest sibling who’s tired of being the "strong one," or you're just trying to understand the Type A powerhouse in your life, this episode is a permission slip to put the weight down for a second.
