#142: 5 Signs You Struggle With Receivin...

Stephanie Rigg
About this episode

In today's episode, we're talking all about receiving. For many of us, being the giver in our relationships is our comfort zone - which can lead to imbalances, unmet needs, and resentment. But while we may bemoan the lack of reciprocity in our relationships, there is a vulnerability to receiving that many of us are uncomfortable with. 

We cover:

  • the tendency to consistently end up in imbalanced relationships 
  • difficulty directing asking for what you want or need
  • feeling guilty or burdensome when people support or accommodate you
  • struggling to accept compliments or praise
  • discomfort with being the centre of attention
