Description

Ever feel a little anxious giving feedback, and worry it won’t land the way you intended? In this “How Do I…” episode of Be the Sun, Not the Salt, Dr. Harry Cohen and Connie Fontaine dig into the art of offering feedback that truly lifts people up and helps them grow.

Here’s what you’ll hear:

• Why feedback is more than just pointing out what went wrong—and how to make it a gift people actually appreciate
• The importance of “accountability with love,” and how holding people to high standards doesn’t mean being harsh or negative
• Candid stories and lessons from the workplace, family, and everyday life about giving feedback that inspires, not deflates
• How leading with what’s great sets the stage for honest conversation and positive change
• Simple guidelines to make feedback more constructive, easier to hear… and even welcome (!)

If you’ve ever wanted to turn tricky conversations into uplifting moments—or make people say, “thank you, I needed that”—this episode breaks down the subtle skills and playful spirit of feedback done right.
