Bad at Receiving

Someone compliments you, and before they’ve even finished, you’re already brushing it aside. Someone offers to help, and even though you’re overwhelmed, you say, “I’ve got it.” You know how to give kindness. You just don’t always know how to receive it. In this episode, we’ll explore why being cared for can feel strangely vulnerable, and why letting someone show up for you may be one of the kindest things you can offer them in return. Join me as we Calm it Down in 3...2...1.
