A title slide with orange text on a black background, reading "Signs You're Absorbing vs Holding Space," with "@THE.DIVINE.ACADEMY" at the top and "SWIPE" at the bottom, all on a light beige background.
A slide listing signs of absorbing, including "FEELING DRAINED AFTER CONVERSATIONS," "TAKING ON EMOTIONS AS YOUR OWN," and "STRUGGLING TO SEPARATE THEIR STORY FROM YOURS," with red 'X' icons.
A slide listing signs of holding space, including "FEELING PRESENT, NOT DEPLETED," "OFFERING COMPASSION WITHOUT RESCUING," and "REMAINING ROOTED IN YOUR OWN CENTER," with floral and diamond icons.
A slide explaining why the difference matters, stating "ABSORBING → BURNOUT, RESENTMENT, BLURRED BOUNDARIES" and "HOLDING → COMPASSION, CLARITY, EMPOWERED CONNECTION," with star icons.
A concluding slide with text "You can witness someone's shadow without carrying it. That's true holding space." and a call to action: "Drop a 🌀 if you've ever absorbed instead of held."
