Description: In today's episode, I'm talking about almost not going to a shiva because I wasn't on the invite list - and how my friend Jenny reminded me that showing up for people isn't about being invited, it's about being present when someone needs you.  I share the story of old middle school wounds showing up even though I know better, and how pushing past them led to one of the most heart-expanding experiences I've had in a long time.  We'll explore how showing up for people - setting aside our own insecurities and old stories - is one of the most sacred things we can do. Question to carry into your day: Where in your life are old wounds or insecurities keeping you from showing up for someone - and what would it look like to set those aside and just be there anyway?
