The question Paul asks every guest draws from Missé an answer that is both personal and universally applicable. Her most important conversation was with her mother, who cut through Missé's spiral of self-blame with firm, loving clarity: enough. Stop being a martyr. Take care of yourself first, not because you don't love your children or your partner, but because your emotional state is contagious — your wellbeing is their wellbeing. Missé expands on this into a small manifesto: if you give everything to everyone and leave yourself empty, the whole system collapses. Fill yourself first. Then fill everyone else.
