Remembering what a privilege it is when someone dares to be vulnerable with me…
…allows me to dare to be vulnerable with them.
Sometimes it allows me to get over that internal voice that says I’m a burden and too much.
I can even coach myself with statements like “they will want to be able to be there for me”, “they will feel like you trust them”, “it will strengthen the relationship”, “it might even feel nice when they show, again, that they care”.
