## Resource

“I feel like I’m holding everything together… and I don’t know how much longer I can keep doing it.”   In this month’s Director File, Leeza shares a powerful and deeply relatable letter from a director who is caught in the cycle of supporting everyone else… while slowly burning out themselves.   This episode explores:   • The blurred lines between connection and over-supporting your team • The emotional load of being “the one everyone goes to” • Why creating a safe culture can sometimes go too far • The hidden leadership patterns that create dependency • The shift from rescuing → leading   This is a raw and honest conversation that so many leaders will resonate with.   💛 If you’ve ever felt like you are carrying everything… this episode is for you.   👉 Share this with another director who needs to hear: “It’s not just you.”
