If you’re like me, you grew up hearing, “It’s better to give than to receive.” What does better even mean? Maybe easier. What if receiving is not about the gift itself but about the act of being open to what life (and others) want to give us? Even if it's awkward gifts, unsolicited advice, or a blaise coffee shop "good morning."

Here’s what’s inside this episode:
🌟 Why receiving is different (and harder) than getting—and why it's so worth it.
🌟 The secret rule that made receiving life-changing during my cancer journey: No one who loves you can give the wrong thing.
🌟 How to become a wide receiver for life’s unexpected “passes,” whether it’s an awkward gift, unsolicited advice, or just a coffee shop “good morning.”

We’ll also explore:
🎁 The surprising freedom of receiving without the "shoulds."
🏉 How to adjust, stretch, and make those awe-inspiring “catches” in life—even when it’s not the pass you were hoping for.
✨ The grace of accepting what’s offered while staying true to your own preferences, tastes, and boundaries.

With tips, personal stories (like how my sweet pug Elvira taught me grace), and a sprinkle of holiday magic, this episode is here to help you embrace the both-and of receiving. Whether it’s the gift you wanted or the advice you didn’t, the awkward stretch of learning to be a wide receiver can lead to a bigger, fuller life.
