About this listen
Ever avoided a conversation because it just felt… awkward? In this episode, we dive into the discomfort of giving real feedback—especially when you like someone or want them to succeed.
I’ll share the story of a high-performing team member whose missed deadlines left me silently frustrated—and how I finally found the courage to say the hard thing before things broke trust.
This episode kicks off our new mini-series:
