You Don't Need a Thicker Skin: Confidence, Friendships and Taking Risks
Description
JP always tells me to have thicker skin, but the truth is… that’s never going to happen. I have thin skin! I feel things deeply. I love that about myself, but sometimes it makes friendships a challenge to navigate.
Today I’m opening up a bit about my insecurities in friendship, and how I’m working to discern the right level of boundaries with friends so that I look out for myself but also not shut people out prematurely.
Today on WithIn:
How I’m navigating unsolicited comments about me from friends
The challenging process of finding the right level of boundaries with friends
The role self trust plays in learning to trust others
How putting yourself in new situations and environments can enhance your self confidence
Come join us this March 2026 for Clarity & Connection, an intimate Women’s Retreat on the remote, tropical coast of Cambutal, Panama. Through yoga, meditation, and soulful community, you’ll reconnect with yourself and return to what truly matters. Learn more here.
