You know that awkward moment when someone gives you a compliment and instead of saying “thanks,” you spiral into excuses, self-deprecation, or telling them exactly where you bought it on sale? Yep. We’re talking about that.

In this episode, we unpack: – Why accepting compliments feels so damn uncomfortable

  • What you're really doing when you deflect or downplay praise
  • How giving and receiving compliments can be a two-way joy-fest (without being weird)
  • And the surprising power of just saying… “thank you”

Roula shares a sweaty-palmed compliment story (spoiler: it went well), Rosie sets herself a public praise challenge, and Tilly the dog demands her own round of compliments.

Next time someone says something nice about you: try not to run away. Just say thank you.

Do you accept compliments like a pro or panic and change the subject?
