To lead with curiosity without excusing harm. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Because caring about both sides isn’t about avoiding a stance. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It’s about being willing to think deeply, stay grounded in your values, and face complexity without losing yourself in the process. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you’ve ever felt caught between perspectives—or questioned whether you’re “allowed” to see both—this conversation is for you. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Welcome back to Thinking Out Loud. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;#Podcast #MentalHealthPodcast #SelfReflection #EmotionalGrowth #DeepConversations #HonestConversations #HealingJourney #KimberlyRoller&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Subscribe &amp;amp; Follow&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot; href=&quot;https://thinkingoutloud.riverside.com/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Thinking Out Loud&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;YouTube&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot; href=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/@thinkingoutloudkimberly&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;www.youtube.com/@thinkingoutloudkimberly&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Facebook&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot; href=&quot;http://www.facebook.com/thinkingoutloud.kimberly/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;www.facebook.com/thinkingoutloud.kimberly/&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot; href=&quot;https://www.instagram.com/hi.itsmekimberly?fbclid=IwY2xjawSCtIFleHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETFaTlpDYWJMNFIxVEhJUXROc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQQMjIyMDM5MTc4ODIwMDg5MgABHlSs4J6lJ_iH7811oXit4QFL9h48clopgYwn2PlsYza_IKQYAa9-EoIiS_de_aem_AtvK0kTX13WrwuxbOvQsTg&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Instagram&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Spotify&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot; href=&quot;https://open.spotify.com/show/5nXzTR38voNLUuoP0pHbDm?si=c9c54c6d869248f3&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;https://open.spotify.com/show/5nXzTR38voNLUuoP0pHbDm?si=c9c54c6d869248f3&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Apple Podcast&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot; href=&quot;https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/thinking-out-loud/id1883286710&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/thinking-out-loud/id1883286710&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Deezer &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot; href=&quot;https://link.deezer.com/s/332FJxgr8rpT3wbeQTDew&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;https://link.deezer.com/s/332FJxgr8rpT3wbeQTDew&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Amazon Music &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot; href=&quot;https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/f6413887-cf19-4113-bed1-45e3f31d636c/thinking-out-loud&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/f6413887-cf19-4113-bed1-45e3f31d636c/thinking-out-loud&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For questions, collaborations, or guest inquiries:&lt;br /&gt;📧 &lt;a rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot; href=&quot;mailto:thinkingoutloudkimberly@gmail.com&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;thinkingoutloudkimberly@gmail.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</itunes:summary><itunes:explicit>no</itunes:explicit><itunes:duration>00:12:31</itunes:duration><itunes:image href="https://hosting-media.riverside.com/media/podcasts/704d55b8-2b0d-437e-a679-0c88557c9036/logos/97c701eb-0c83-4374-b9db-a5ded710e11a.jpeg"/><itunes:season>1</itunes:season><itunes:episode>9</itunes:episode><itunes:title>EP9: Both Can Be True</itunes:title><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title><![CDATA[EP8: When Loyalty Becomes Self-Abandonment]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p><b>EP8: When Loyalty Becomes Self-Abandonment</b></p><p>At what point does loyalty stop being love—and start becoming self-abandonment? </p><p>In this episode of Thinking Out Loud, Kimberly reflects on the quiet ways loyalty can shift from connection into imbalance—especially within family and long-standing relationships. </p><p>We’re often taught that staying, enduring, and holding on is what love looks like.
