Listen "Holding Space"
Episode Synopsis
What does it mean to hold space for another person? And how do we hold space for ourselves? When Heather Plett's mother was dying, she discovered that holding space for her, without an agenda or any idea what would happen next, launched her and her siblings into a sacred, liminal space of being. Heather received the same fro her mother's palliative care nurse; she offered support and information when needed without expectation, allowing Heather and her family to find their own way. After this most profound lesson, Heather built a career dedicated to exploring communities and relationships resting on the foundation of holding space. Join us to talk about the principles of this foundation and how to honor ourselves as we show up for those we care about. What makes for a healthy relationship of mutual holding, and how do we deal with the discomfort of saying no to things that are not right for us?
