Am I the right kind of busy? Where does self-worth come from? Helping versus enabling? Being a victim versus a participant? Susan shares, in part 1 of 4 of Episode 11, about how the booklet "When I Got Busy, I Got Better" (P-78) impacted her life. We discuss the different types of fear in Chapter One, how service keeps us from isolating, & that we're so glad there's no performance review in service work!
