We're diving into the world of neediness this week with Mara Glatzel! Let’s face it: the word “needy” often gets a bad rap, conjuring up feelings of discomfort. But guess what? Everyone has needs! Mara is here to encourage us to embrace our neediness in a compassionate environment. As a coach, podcast host, and the author of Needy: How to Advocate for Your Needs and Claim Your Sovereignty, she brings a wealth of knowledge to the table.

In this episode, you'll discover why many women feel uneasy about their neediness and how self-care isn’t just a spa day. Mara shares her personal journey from being a “control freak” and perfectionist to reclaiming her space and sovereignty. Plus, she answers the pivotal question: “What has been your journey to taking up space in your life?” Get ready for a conversation that’s as enlightening as it is empowering!
