  <title>Empathy for the Struggle, But No Patience for the Excuse</title>
  <description>What’s the difference between understanding someone’s struggle and enabling their excuses?

You can understand why someone is the way they are without accepting harmful patterns forever. You can love someone without rescuing them. And you can have compassion while still having boundaries.

Sometimes the most loving thing we can say—to someone else or ourselves—is: I understand how you got here. Now, what are you going to do about it?

Let’s TALC about it.</description>
