The problem with compliments

We're starting a campaign.... to give compliments freely, accept them gracefully and encourage others to do the same.

What do you say when someone gives you a compliment? "Thanks", or do you brush it off? Do you want to make excuses? Do you want to play it down? And more importantly why? Compliments are rarely given for any reason except that it's nice, it's reactionary, they are usually given generously. Let's assume that's the case, and so we should accept with the same spirit. It's NOT a gift exchange, you are not obliged to return them.

Accepting a compliment can be really difficult, some struggle more than others. Let's be brave together and help each other be better at receiving compliments.

Honestly, this episode is so full of laughter you wouldn't think we took our jobs as Curves Coaches remotely seriously, but of course, we wouldn't be here if that was the case. We've committed to changing women's lives for the better by sharing our motivation. We're just two Curves Coaches talking about our experiences working with hundreds of women over more than 15 years between us.
