To highlight how individual the process can be, she talks about her experience (and cries a bit) (but is ultimately ok!).Subscribe to the Nobody Panic Patreon at patreon.com/nobodypanicWant to support Nobody Panic?

How to Take a Compliment
You look lovely today. ....Thank you. See? Not so hard is it? Why is accepting a compliment such agony, why do we curl up like a shrimp the moment someone is nice to us. Why do we insist on shouting 'OH THIS I GOT IT IN A BIN I HATE IT' if anyone so much as looks at our new dress. Stevie and Tessa wrestle with the big ideas and then practice complimenting each other. This is a really good episode. ....Thank you. Subscribe to the Nobody Panic Patreon at patreon.com/nobodypanicWant to support Nobody Panic?
