Patrick shares an anecdote about Steffany’s experiences as a coach, where she often provided guidance and support to friends without charging for her time. This led to a realization that her generosity was being taken for granted. Patrick draws parallels with his own experiences, highlighting the importance of managing expectations around generosity to prevent it from becoming an unappreciated norm.
