Inviting and Receiving in The Middle with Kim O’Hara
Manage episode 364824195 series 3475316
I had the pleasure of chatting with Kim O'Hara who played a huge role in my journey with The Mddl. Kim is a writer and book coach, who gave me the confidence to start sharing my own writing.
Kim is also actively working towards creating safe spaces for survivors of sexual assault to share their stories. During our conversation, she shared how she was able to cultivate events of joy around topics that are often surrounded by shame and stigma.
Kim also talked about the importance of inviting people in and being open to receive what they have to give. She shared her own experiences of learning to accept help and support from others, even when it felt uncomfortable.
One of the highlights of our conversation was when Kim opened up about her love letters and how she stopped perpetuating patterns in her relationships. She shared her personal journey of self-discovery and how she was able to break free from old habits that were holding her back.

Thanks for tuning in to this episode, and I hope you found it as inspiring and thought-provoking as I did. Until next time!
