Selfness, not Selflessness (why losing yourself in service isn't the path to healing)

from The Art of Shame-Free Living · host Crystal Haitsma

We explore the concept of 'selfness' as opposed to 'selflessness.' Learn how traditional ideas of selflessness often lead to feelings of shame and burnout. By embracing selfness, we can find inner fullness and peace, enabling us to serve others without feeling drained. This episode includes reflections on the teachings of Jesus Christ as the epitome of selfness and encourages listeners to identify and take their next small step toward a more connected, grounded life.
