Episode 2 - How Labels, Good or Bad, Distance Us From Each Other

In this conversation, we explore the often-overlooked idea that receiving is an art too. We talk about how giving doesn’t end with intention, effort, or even the gift itself-it completes itself only when it is truly received. How overwhelm, guilt, or discomfort around money and worth can quietly take away from the joy a giver hopes to experience. And how different people express love through different resources-time, creativity, presence, or money-none of which are more or less meaningful than the other. We reflect on how shared joy is created when gifts are received with openness and gratitude, and how rejection-intentional or not-can feel deeply hurtful to those who find happiness in giving to their loved ones. We also touch upon the other side of the experience too: what it means to wait to receive, how important it is to know and communicate your needs, and how learning to express desire-without entitlement-can actually deepen connection and intimacy.

In this conversation, we explore how labels—of any kind—can be deeply isolating. Whether someone is labeled a “failure” or seen as exceptionally capable, put-together, and always strong, being placed at either extreme can distance them from connection. We reflect on how permanence in language—“you always,” “you never,” “this is just who you are”—can box people into fixed identities, leaving little room for fluctuation, vulnerability, or being human. We also talk about why strength is often mistaken for invincibility, and how being perceived as “fine,” “sorted,” or “too capable to need support” can erase emotional presence. Because when labels take over, curiosity fades, care becomes conditional, and lived experiences risk being dismissed or trivialized. Through this discussion, we invite gentler ways of relating with each other—where people are allowed to be more than the names or assumptions placed upon them.
