Who Takes Care of You? The Cost of Always Being the Strong One

There comes a moment when the woman who holds everything together has to ask herself one sacred question: Who is taking care of me?In this episode of Girl, We Got This, Laticia Rolle speaks to the women who carry the weight, remember the details, make the calls, nurture the relationships, show up for the family, hold space for their friends and somehow keep going even when their own cup has been empty for far too long.This is not a conversation about bubble baths and spa days. It is a conversation about stewardship of your body, your energy, your time, your peace, and your joy. Laticia challenges the belief that being a good woman means being endlessly available and reminds listeners that exhaustion is not proof of love, worthiness, or strength.Through the metaphor of a garden, she asks women to stop tending to everyone else's flowers while neglecting their own soil. She explores boundaries without guilt, saying no without an essay, creating small daily sanctuaries, and asking one simple question each morning: What do I need today?Because the goal isn't to stop loving, giving, nurturing, or showing up. The goal is to stop disappearing while doing it.You were never meant to pour from depletion. Take care of the woman everything else depends on and let the rest of your life be watered from her overflow.This episode is sponsored by TRESS Hats, designed by women for women, featuring a patented flexible three-band back and satin lining made to accommodate and protect a variety of hairstyles; Tresshats.comSubscribe to Girl, We Got This and leave a five-star review to help more women find these conversations.

In this episode of Girl, We Got This, Laticia does her walk and talk and gets vulnerable about one of the easiest traps to fall into: believing you’re behind in life. Whether it’s your career, relationships, motherhood, healing, finances, or starting over, social media can make it feel like everyone else is getting there faster but we’re not all starting from the same place.Laticia opens up about her own childhood, being raised by young parents, growing up with instability and a strict upbringing, family trauma, and the discipline she developed through sports and how those experiences shaped her relationship with success. She explores why our childhood, resources, support systems, fear, trauma, knowledge, and opportunities all influence the timeline of our lives.This is your reminder to stop comparing your chapter to someone else’s, give yourself more compassion, and redefine what success actually means for you. Laticia shares why healing, caring for your body, finding the right community, doing the inner work, and becoming more aligned with your higher self may matter far more than how quickly you reach the next milestone.Because maybe you’re not behind at all. Maybe you’re simply on your own timeline, in divine time.

Sometimes the strongest thing you can do is say, "That hurt me."After stepping away to rest and reconnect with herself, Laticia returns to Girl, We Got This to share a powerful lesson about trusting your intuition, overcoming people pleasing, setting healthy boundaries, and communicating your needs with confidence. Through a vulnerable story about friendship, unmet expectations, and choosing honesty over silence, she explores how listening to your body's wisdom can lead to deeper, healthier relationships and greater self-worth.If you've ever struggled with people pleasing, self abandonment, boundary setting, trusting your intuition, or finding your voice, this episode will remind you that the right people won't leave when you speak your truth, they'll meet you there. It's an honest conversation about emotional healing, authentic connection, and learning to choose yourself without guilt.

Keep Showing Up This Summer: Rest, Recovery & JoySummer is finally here, and after returning home to Los Angeles from a work trip, there's nothing that fills my cup more than walking my dog, Zoe, soaking up the sunshine, and feeling that creative energy come alive again. In this episode, I'm sharing why this season reminds me to keep showing up for myself but showing up doesn't always mean doing more. Sometimes it means resting, recovering, and honoring what your mind and body truly need. As a former college athlete and a Human Design Projector, I've learned that protecting my energy is what allows me to perform at my highest level, which is why I now limit my commercial acting and modeling auditions to just one focused hour a day instead of burning myself out. I also speak to the women, especially the mothers, who carry guilt for taking time for themselves, reminding you that asking for help, spending time in nature, and creating quiet moments isn't selfish; it's essential. We also talk about grief, resilience, why endings often become beautiful new beginnings, and how joy and play are some of the most healing things we can give ourselves.

In this episode of Girl, We Got This, I share a powerful lesson from a recent three-day print campaign in New York City that reminded me how important it is to protect your peace when chaos is unfolding around you. What started as a last-minute production change quickly turned into a stressful situation on set when wardrobe selections were rejected, tensions rose, and one person's overwhelm began affecting the entire room. Instead of absorbing the energy, I chose to stay grounded through simple rituals, nervous system regulation practices, gratitude, and conscious observation.We dive into what it means to stay emotionally regulated when others are dysregulated, how to stop taking on other people's stress, and why protecting your energy is one of the greatest forms of self-responsibility. This conversation explores emotional intelligence, nervous system health, personal boundaries, workplace dynamics, mindfulness, self-awareness, and leadership through presence. If you've ever struggled with absorbing other people's moods, managing difficult personalities, or staying calm under pressure, this episode will remind you that someone else's overwhelm does not have to become your reality.In This Episode:Nervous system regulation tools that work in real lifeHow to protect your energy in stressful environmentsEmotional regulation and emotional intelligenceWorkplace stress, conflict, and difficult personalitiesThe difference between observing and absorbingWhy your mood impacts everyone around youAccountability, self-awareness, and personal responsibilityCreating peace in chaotic situationsTimestamps00:00 NYC Check-In00:13 Knicks and Brunson Tease00:43 Set Week Setup03:33 Styling Chaos Begins04:55 Dysregulation Spreads08:12 Protect Your Light11:11 Let People Be12:36 Bigger Than The Set15:30 Regulation Is Responsibility18:00 Closing Love

Welcome back to my Walk & Talk Series. Today, I’m sharing one of the biggest lessons life has taught me this year: when you change your environment, you change your life. As women, we often outgrow people, places, and versions of ourselves, and our growth requires us to be honest about what no longer feels aligned. I open up about leaving an East Side Los Angeles loft that no longer felt safe and moving into a nature-filled home near the ocean that I manifested through prayer, journaling, and faith. That shift didn’t just change where I lived, it improved my health, creativity, business, relationships, and overall joy. We talk about the power of creating a home that supports your well-being through feng shui, energy clearing, and intentional living, while remembering that our body is our first home and deserves nourishment, movement, rest, and gratitude.I also share a heartfelt conversation about protecting your energy and being intentional about who has access to you. Sometimes growth requires editing your circle, releasing one-sided relationships, and creating stronger boundaries with those who take more than they give. I share the spiritual practices that help me stay grounded, including: breathwork, meditation, visualization, prayer, journaling, sage, and palo Santo and why having a small circle of trusted people can be one of the greatest gifts you give yourself. If you're navigating a season of change, healing, or reinvention, I hope this episode feels like a walk with a trusted friend who reminds you that you are allowed to choose peace, protect your energy, and create a life that feels good from the inside out.

Thoughts on exploring the power of self-expression, helping you find your authentic voice and allowing you to let go of the need to prove your worth, because you never had to in the first place.
