Episode 17 - Why some people love you when you are useful.

Author: ADEBOYE Hannah February 8, 2026 Duration: 4:40
In this episode, we talk about the uncomfortable truth most people avoid: some love is conditional. You’re celebrated when you’re useful, visible, or solving problems, and slowly ignored when you’re not. We break down why this happens, how to spot it early, and what it costs you emotionally if you keep confusing usefulness with love. Honest, grounded, and a little confronting, but necessary.
