Why does feedback hit the ego so fast?

In this episode of Gnaw on This, Ben and Syya unpack why criticism feels personal and how emotional maturity, trust, and self-awareness change the game. They riff on defensive reactions, the role of ego in leadership, and why feedback only works when there’s real relationship equity behind it.

Because feedback isn’t just about delivery… it’s about trust, timing, and long-term connection.

Growth doesn’t happen without feedback.

But feedback doesn’t work without trust.
