    You’ve done the work. You’ve been open. You’ve let people in. But what happens when all that vulnerability starts to feel… exhausting? In this episode of Kickin’ It: Conversations with Krys, we explore the emotional toll of constantly showing up with an open heart—only to be met with silence, inconsistency, or dismissal.
