Hey everyone, this is Jennie Dildine with episode 155 of the LDS Mission Podcast. On this episode I discuss the art of holding space, which is an important tool for confidence and relationships.

I talk about how holding space can help missionaries and leaders create a supportive environment by allowing others to have their own experiences and emotions without judgment.

Some ways to hold space include being curious about others' perspectives, accepting of differences, speaking to the full human experience, and avoiding comparisons or dismissing what people say happened to them.

I hope that by practicing holding space this week in your interactions, it can help you better connect with and support those around you on your mission or in your church service. Be sure to check out the free resources mentioned that can help as you prepare for your mission or return home. Thanks for listening!

As always, if you found this episode helpful, I want to invite you to subscribe if you aren't already, share this episode with your friends and missionaries you know, and write a review. I know this work will help missionaries around the world and it would mean so much to me if you did. Until next week my friends.
