Description

Why is it so hard for us to say “I’m sorry” even when we know we’ve hurt someone? In this episode of Random Talk with NG, we explore the psychology behind our struggle to apologize. From pride and fear of rejection, to cultural conditioning and the need to protect our self-image, we unpack the hidden barriers that make apologies feel heavier than they should.


We’ll also talk about the true power of a genuine apology—how it restores trust, heals relationships, and frees us from unnecessary guilt. By the end, you’ll see that apologizing isn’t weakness but one of the bravest acts of humility and connection.


If you’ve ever wondered why apologies are tough—and how to embrace vulnerability and growth—this episode is for you.
