Welcome to Part 2 of our 4-part Caregiver Archetype series.
In this episode, Effie is joined by somatic therapist Christy Foster to explore the Prostitute Archetype—also known as the Worth/Value archetype.
This pattern asks:
What part of myself am I trading for approval, peace, love, or survival?
For caregivers, this can show up as sacrificing your time, identity, health, and needs just to keep everything going. While it often comes from love, the cost can quietly become too high.
In this conversation, you’ll learn:
- How this archetype shows up in caregiving
- The difference between self-sacrifice and self-abandonment
- Why your needs still matter
- Simple ways to reconnect with yourself—even in the chaos
This episode is your reminder:
You can care for your child without losing yourself in the process.
