Not all breakdowns are loud. Some come quietly, through fatigue, tension, and a body that’s been carrying too much for too long.

Inspired by Dr. Gabor Maté’s When the Body Says No, this episode of Turning Pages with Paras explores the powerful connection between chronic stress, emotional repression, and physical illness. But this isn’t just about health. It’s about the hidden cost of always being the strong one. Of saying yes when you mean no. Of putting yourself last until your body forces you to stop.

Through intimate storytelling and reflection, Paras invites you to rethink what it really means to care, for others, and for yourself. If you’ve ever felt exhausted in a way rest couldn’t fix. This episode is your moment to pause, reflect… and finally, exhale.
