Notas del episodio
Somebody offers to help you and something inside immediately says: no, no, I'm fine.
A friend pays you a compliment and you deflect it before it can land.
Someone does something kind for you and you feel... uncomfortable. Almost wrong.
If you recognise this, you are not alone. And it is not a quirk of your personality. It is a pattern, and it started much earlier than you think.
In this episode I explore why so many women who give endlessly to others find it almost impossible to receive. Where it comes from. And what it has cost us.
I also share something I've come to understand about the connection between giving and control, because when the inner world feels chaotic, making ourselves indispensable in the outer world can feel like the only way to stay safe.
This episode might be an uncomfortable listen. That's usually a sign it's exactly what you need.
