If we didn't grow up in an environment where showing our work is part of the practice (that applies to most of us), getting feedback from others can be scary and overwhelming. Fear of being triggered and not knowing what to do with it could be one of the important reasons holding us back from sharing our work.

What practice could you think of that helps build resilience towards feedback?
