Episode Description from the Publisher

In this week's insight episode, I build on an idea I shared in last week's episode: allowing others to help you, compliment you, love you, and give to you is an important part of being human. Receiving doesn't make you conceited, helpless, or a bad person. You don't have to immediately return every favor, and accepting someone's kindness doesn't mean you'll become dependent on them. Sometimes, we simply have to learn how to let good things reach us.In this episode, I share:Why women often struggle to allow others to help usHow to gracefully accept help, compliments, and kindness without minimizing themWhy receiving can feel vulnerable, even when we know we deserve what we're being givenWhy simply being ourselves can be a way of returning favorsWhy truly being able to receive requires presenceMy Poetry & Reflections Notion Page:https://www.notion.so/Morgan-Sneed-Poetry-Reflections-294fbd79ed638009bf42dc1cddabf4fd?source=copy_linkMy Socials:All my links in one place: https://linktr.ee/morgansneedInstagram: @morgansneeddTikTok: @morgansneedWant to start your own podcast?I host with RSS and love how easy it is to use.Start your podcast here: https://rss.com/?via=4df2a8If you sign up through this link, it helps support the show!Want to contact me directly?Email me: youatyourbestpodcast@gmail.comNeed Advice?
