Why do we allow ourselves to stay in suffering when we see the hand being extended and we won't take it?

She shares real-life examples from her coaching practice and highlights the importance of shifting this mindset to embrace self-care and support. Laura also introduces organisations like Rebuild a Bitch, which provide financial assistance for mental and emotional support, and emphasises the value of receiving help.
