Some of us give so much that we forget to check in with ourselves. Others struggle to receive without guilt, feeling like accepting support makes us a burden. And if we’re honest, most of us dance between both ends of that spectrum.
In this episode, I’m unpacking the balance between giving and receiving -not just in relationships, but in how we manage our energy, allow support, and care for ourselves. I talk about how masculine and feminine energies influence the ways we show up, why receiving can feel so vulnerable, and what it looks like to move from an empty cup to overflow.
I also offer small, practical shifts to help you give from a place of wholeness and receive with more ease, because you deserve both.
