Listen "Convo #179 | Why So Defensive?"
Episode Synopsis
Have you ever wondered why you get defensive when someone offers wisdom, insight or loving correction? Why certain people's words trigger something in you, even when they're trying to help? In this Convo, we're exploring the deeper truth behind that defensiveness.God sends people as messengersHe places insight in the mouths of othersHe uses community to sharpen, grow and elevate us.But many of us reject the very wisdom we've prayed for because our ego steps in first. Why do we want to be the smartest in the room?Why must we appear like we have it all figured out?Why is it that when someone reflects our blind spots, we treat it like an attack instead of a blessing?The truth is simple: we cannot grow if we can't receive. And we cannot receive if we're living in constant defense mode.God is always sending messages...but are we open enough to hear them?Listen now!I have a new book: Fake Ass Vegan: A Book on Balance Fake Ass Vegan: A Book On Balance— explores the way we consume through food, fashion, and even the beliefs we carry, and how living in true balance with God—with each other, opens the door to harmony, to peace, to endless possibility.
