Stress doesn’t always look like falling apart. Sometimes it looks like showing up. Performing. Smiling. Leading. Carrying everyone else while quietly unraveling inside. In Stress Looks Different on Her, Aimee Egesa explores the dangerous misconception that strength equals stability—and why the women who appear to have it all together are often the ones suffering the most in silence.

She’s dependable. Resilient. Always the one holding it all together. But what happens when the very thing the world praises her for is the thing quietly breaking her? In The Strong Woman Myth Is Breaking Women, Aimee Egesa confronts the dangerous narrative that strength means endless sacrifice, silent suffering, and carrying everyone else’s burdens without complaint. This powerful reflection unpacks how the expectation to “be strong” has become both a badge and a burden.
