Someone tells you that you look beautiful today. What do you do?

If you're like most women, you immediately tell them about the sale rack, the dry shampoo, and the bad lighting.

Studies show that only 22% of compliments between women are actually accepted — and women accept compliments from men nearly twice as often.

And research finds that women who do accept compliments are actually rated more negatively by others for doing so. So we're not imagining the pressure to shrink — it's real, it's cultural, and it runs deep.

In this episode, I'm getting into why deflecting a compliment is never really about the compliment. It's about what we believe we deserve, what we've been taught about taking up space, and why the woman who can't receive a kind word is often the same woman who struggles to ask for a raise, claim her seat at the table, or let herself be truly seen.

Humility is not the same thing as shrinking. And thank you is not the same thing as arrogance. It's time we learned the difference.
