Weirdly on Weds we had an online team meeting where our icebreaker was to use our organisation's recognition/praise system to say thank you/send praise etc.....I got four 😀 and said thank you and took them genuinely and felt proud of self x

I think mine definitely has a lot do to with my relationship with my brother.....and now having such a challenging journey with son, it sort of feeds this 'I deserve nothing better' view...I am looking into counselling thru work next week....I think it is time x

I am sure you aced your talk. We've had rain this morning - such a different day to yesterday (even though the temperature is apparently the same, although doesn't feel like it), which was glorious sunshine and really spring like. Never heard of a mackerel sky before. I find compliments difficult, as that's not how I feel. Happy to give them though, and do so genuinely. I don't have that childhood experience that you speak of to reference back to. Emotional safety is a working progress, which definitely needs stronger foundations x
