Feedback often has a negative connotation, but today, Chris and I want to show you how it can be a valuable tool for growth and progress. We walk you through a 12-step approach to providing feedback and offer advice on how to deliver feedback to your teams and employees effectively. Plus, we share personal stories of how feedback positively impacted our marriage and professional relationships. By implementing these strategies in your own life, you can foster stronger connections and greater success. Feedback is not about criticism, it’s about using it as a catalyst for growth!

Confession: I’m struggling to maintain an online persona that aligns with who I am in real life. I know this is rooted in fear of criticism or backlash, and it’s holding me back from expressing my authentic self and making genuine connections with my audience. If you’re in the same boat, know you’re not alone! In this episode, I’m challenging myself to embrace my gift for storytelling on all of my platforms and inviting you to take a moment to reflect on your online presence. What parts of your true self are you not revealing?
