You don’t have to support me, but you don’t have to hurt me either

You don’t have to support someone’s journey — but you don’t have the right to hurt them either.

In this episode of the Talkin’ Crazy Podcast, Meech breaks down the difference between neutral disagreement and intentional sabotage. From military leaders delaying transitions, to families discouraging dreams, to friends projecting their own failures — this episode dives into why people make environments hostile when they don’t agree with your growth.

Meech unpacks the idea of authority without empathy, calls out bystander leadership, and explains why some people try to derail your progress when it doesn’t fit the plan they had for your life. This episode is for anyone who’s been punished for choosing a different path — especially service members navigating transitions, growth, and identity outside the uniform.

If you’re fighting for your future while also fighting the people around you, this episode is for you.

🎙️ Key topics covered:

• The difference between not supporting someone and intentionally hurting them

• Authority without empathy and why it destroys trust

• Why people sabotage growth they don’t understand

• Military transitions, SkillBridge, and leadership resistance

• Failed dreams, projection, and resentment

• Standing up for your people — even when you don’t agree.

If this episode resonates with you, share it with someone who needs to hear it. Growth shouldn’t come with punishment.
