Why So Many Women Are Emotionally Drained by “Good Men”: It’s not drama. It's design. Emotional labor isn’t love—it’s a system.This episode cracks open the invisible weight too many women bear in modern relationships.

But what if the exhaustion you feel isn’t personal? What if it’s structural?Lynn pulls back the curtain on emotional labor—not just what it is, but why it keeps showing up in even the most “normal” relationships. And once you see the pattern, it can’t be unseen.This one might sting. But it might also set you free.Hit play when you’re ready to understand the truth that’s been sitting just beneath the surface.We also reference Episode 89, “The Silent Brotherhood,” for deeper insight into male loyalty codes, and highlight Lynn’s book Master Manipulators—now on Audible—for a full breakdown of covert narcissistic tactics.🎧 To hear this full episode, go to <a href="https://waketheelephant.gumroad.com/l/hiddenloyalty" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">waketheelephant.gumroad.com/l/hiddenloyalty</a>Master Manipulators on Audible: Master Manipulators now on Audible:<a href="https://www.audible.com/pd/B091D7VCXX/?source_code=AUDFPWS0223189MWT-BK-ACX0-247688&ref=acx_bty_BK_ACX0_247688_rh_us" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.audible.com/pd/B091D7VCXX/?source_code=AUDFPWS0223189MWT-BK-ACX0-247688&ref=acx_bty_BK_ACX0_247688_rh_us</a>Further Reading:<a href="https://greatergood.berkeley.edu/article/item/what_is_emotional_labor_and_why_does_it_matter" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">What is Emotional Labor and Why Does it Matter?</a><a href="https://slate.com/human-interest/2019/05/mens-emotions-women-labor-patriarchy.html" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Men's Loneliness Starts in Boyhood: </a><h3>🔗 Explore More:</h3>🌐 Visit the Website:<a href="https://movingforwardafterabuse.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://movingforwardafterabuse.com</a>Explore free resources, articles, survivor tools, and deep-dive content to help you reclaim your power and heal from narcissistic abuse.📚 Read the Books by Lynn:<a href="https://movingforwardafterabuse.com/books-by-lynn/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://movingforwardafterabuse.com/books-by-lynn/</a>Check out Lynn’s powerful books on narcissistic abuse recovery, manipulation tactics, and the emotional journey of healing.
