On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I talk about 6 powerful things that my therapist, Daphne Rose Kingma, taught me back when I was in my 20’s and living in California - that totally changed how I relate to myself and other people.

I share the story of finding an old journal from my early yoga teacher training days and the little “love note” cards that Daphne wrote for me as gentle reminders and homework - that have stayed with me for nearly 30 years.

We dive into learning how to:

• Ask for what you need
• Notice what you’re not asking for
• Receive love and compliments without deflecting
• Honor rest
• Give yourself as much as you give others
• Have real compassion for the younger parts of you who had to grow up too fast.

If you’ve ever put yourself last, are an over-giver, or have struggled to feel worthy of love and your needs, then this one’s for you! ❤️
