35. Why is it Difficult to Accept Compliments?!

Today we start things off with Anne flooding Becky with buckets of genuine compliments. Becky honestly shares that it was hard to receive said affirmation! Sounds familiar? Today we are digging into why it’s so dang hard to just say “thank you” when people speak life over you. And more importantly, how to practically grow in this area.


More in today’s conversation:

  1. Anne sharing a cute story of how she decided to embrace a compliment

  2. How we can help the younger generation learn to accept kind words

  3. Why it’s possible to say thanks, even if you don’t feel their words are true yourself

  4. Thoughts on why giving lovely feedback is easier than receiving that lovely feedback

  5. Why some people don’t give complaints

  6. What deflecting is common

  7. The danger of not learning to receive compliments to fill your brain space

  8. How to give better compliments

  9. Flattering vs thoughtful compliments

  10. Why we might criticize ourselves more as we age

  11. How not learning to accept affirmation can impact even your walk with the Lord
