Someone gives constantly but struggles to receive. A coach explores why overgiving and openness to receiving don't match, pointing to beliefs underneath that keep people stuck in one direction.
I'm just giving constantly and people's negative energy. Let me ask you this.
How are you with receiving?
Receiving? Great.
I mean, even the way you said it, receiving?
That would be nice. I mean, yeah. You want to give anything?
Yeah. See, people that overgive tend to attract people that overtake. So what happens is people are overgiving. That's a pattern. I give, give, give, give. And part of that is I give because then I get from that your approval, validation, or you're happy. But you attract people that overtake, that are entitled, that demand and expect all of that, right? So it's kind of like fitting into this energy dynamic where you're caught up in this codependent pattern and it's enabling a specific pattern. So part of the key to that is becoming aware of what the motive is, right? Becoming aware— why am I giving?
