In this episode, I explore why receiving is so difficult for many people—especially natural supporters and independent individuals. Receiving is not weakness, but a powerful act of vulnerability, connection, and emotional strength.

Key themes include:

• ​The emotional blocks to receiving: shame, control, and conditioning
• ​The societal praise of independence and its unintended consequences
• ​How receiving connects us, deepens relationships, and allows others to feel fulfilled
• ​Practical ways to begin practicing the art of receiving, starting small
• ​Insightful parenting advice on giving children "just-right" challenges to build resilience
• ​A special message to women about letting go of the need to “do it all”

Call to Action:Start small—say yes to a compliment, help, or invitation. Please share this episode with someone who finds it hard to receive. Connect with me on Facebook, Instagram, or LinkedIn.
