Id love to hear from you! -chels

Are you feeling the holiday jitters yet? We all know the joy of giving, but in the flurry of festivity, have you ever struggled with receiving? I recount my personal narrative of wrestling with these emotions, of feeling undeserving when receiving gifts, and the impact it bore on my relationships. 

Trust me; it's not just about that beautifully wrapped present under the Christmas tree. It's about the daily acts of giving and receiving in our relationships. I open up about a Thanksgiving dinner that didn't go as planned, not because of a burnt turkey, but because of my partner's difficulty in embracing my efforts. It made me realize the significant role our insecurities and beliefs play in hindering our ability to give and receive. It's time we scrutinized these feelings and their effects on our bonds.

I further unearth the connection between receivership, self-worth, and the opportunities that life throws our way. Ponder on this - Have you ever left the last piece of food on the plate? We often disregard such small actions, but they speak volumes about our self-worth. I share how these feelings of unworthiness seeped into my academics and impeded my potential. But the good news is, we don't have to stay stuck here. We can challenge our limiting beliefs and make room for the good things. So grab your headphones, and let's get this conversation started.
