136. CARE-FRONTATIONS: Three Keys for Giving & Receiving Criticism
About this episode
1. What happens inside us when we receive criticism–and how our brains ensure we’re always in the right (even when we’re not).
2. The three-ingredient recipe for a positive, productive “care-frontation” exchange.
3. The single biggest relationship killer (it’s not conflict) – and how conflict can bring you closer.
4. Amanda navigates a “care-frontation” with her son’s friend’s family – and Abby reevaluates her past relationship with criticism.
