The phrase ‘holding space’ or ‘ holding the
space’ has been cropping up in my Facebook news
feed quite a bit lately.
In the most recent article, the
author defines holding space…”It means that we are willing to walk alongside another person in whatever journey they’re on without judging them, making them feel inadequate, trying to fix them, or trying to impact the outcome. When we hold space for other people, we open our hearts, offer unconditional support, and let go of judgement [sic] and control.” (See post.) Beautiful.
