Description

We all know feedback is supposed to make people better. But let’s be honest—it often just makes people defensive. And if your feedback isn’t building trust, it’s breaking it.


In this episode, we’re unpacking why feedback so often falls flat—and how to fix it. From giving specific, timely feedback that actually lands, to navigating those “train wreck” lessons with honesty and support, these strategies help you shift feedback from something people dread to something they depend on.


Because feedback isn’t about pointing out flaws—it’s about pointing people forward.


If you’ve been trying to build a culture of growth but keep running into resistance, start here. This episode will help you make feedback clear, useful, and welcomed—so it actually drives change.
