He thought he was helping. Riven is not so sure.In our first episode, we sit with the question behind M. Ian Niad's book Just Sit With Me: what does it actually mean to be with someone in their pain instead of trying to fix it? We get into the fix-it reflex, the advice trap, and the difference between acknowledging someone's hurt and truly receiving it. The book's answers stay in the book. This is the conversation around it.

The Ashfires Show, with Rowan and Riven.

Come sit with us.
