In all relationships, there exists a balance and a tension between giving + receiving.

Understanding our unique set points and comfort levels within that balance — or imbalance 😬— is essential to truly knowing ourselves and understanding how we operate in relationships.

For us perfectionists, people pleasers, conflict avoiders, approval junkies, and worthiness seekers, the ratio of giving to receiving can easily get waaayyyy out of whack.

In the episode, we explore the meaning we make around giving + receiving, how giving + receiving make us feel, and how to avoid the trap of overgiving while finding our ideal balance between giving + receiving in relationships.

Get ready to receive the goodness coming your way.
