When Support Feels Far Away

Sometimes, even when we know exactly how we best receive support,
it’s just not available in the way we need it.
And when that happens, it can feel heavy—especially when we don’t
know what to do with all that we’re carrying.


That’s where I’ve been these last few days. And today, I just
want to share a little bit of what I’m learning about
holding space for myself when support feels out
of reach.


If you’ve been struggling to find the support you need, I see
you. I feel you. And I hope this episode meets you right where
you are.
