Do you struggle with the balance between giving support to others and allowing yourself to receive it in return?
Jenny shares personal reflections on their struggles with giving too much and the difficulty in asking for, and sometimes not receiving, the support they need.
Listeners are invited to engage in a reflective journaling exercise about their own experiences in giving and receiving support, prompting introspection about their abilities to maintain this balance.
The episode is intentionally kept short, mirroring the theme of self-care and the necessity of prioritizing one's own needs. Through this journey, we are reminded of the power of journaling to gain clarity and grant ourselves grace.
BONUS – Jenny recorded this episode from her daughter’s blanket fort!
