In this episode of Leaving Crazy Town, Finn and Sarah dive into the complex dynamics of giving and receiving, especially through the lens of codependency. They explore the motivations behind why we give gifts, how we handle receiving them, and the often uncomfortable feelings that can arise during these exchanges. With the holidays approaching, this discussion couldn’t be more timely. Finn and Sarah also share personal anecdotes and practical insights for navigating these social nuances in a healthier way.
