42. Are You An Encouraging Person? ... How to Vulnerably Lift Others Up


Listen Later

"Think of the things that you would say about somebody at their funeral and say it now to them while they're still with you."

I had this thought a few weeks ago and had to ask myself why we wait until someone dies to openly share all of the things we love and admire about them.

We all probably want to encourage others, but we rarely allow extended space to build others up and be vulnerable in that. As I processed through this, I couldn't help but record an episode about it. Some of the thoughts I share are...

  • How to hype others up in a meaningful way
  • How to not feel awkward about giving genuine compliments
  • Why we feel like being vulnerable with someone makes us seem less or weak
  • How to foster your gift of encouragement
  • How to find the good in people and praise it
  • What is holding us back from openly sharing what we appreciate about someone else
  • How to get over the awkwardness of expressing what someone means to us
  • How to allow yourself to receive encouragement

If you seek to empower others and point out the good in others more, as well as be open to receiving it yourself, then this is the episode for you.
