- Example of narrative bringing bottled up emotions to the surface. - “When I lost my world, it left a hole. You have to fill it, not make it deeper.”
- Possible connections between Kara’s need to save everyone and therapists/first responders/trauma worker’s burnout and compassion fatigue. - “You need to have boundaries. You can’t save everyone all of the time.”
- Alex pushes Kara to take care of herself and have fun.
