About this episode
Ever feel like someone's words just cut too deep, or like you're on the edge of snapping back? In this episode, I dive into how to handle criticism—whether you're the one receiving it or tempted to dish it out. This week was a bit rough for me—like when I dropped my phone in the toilet! But I learned to laugh it off. We discuss why we shouldn't let negative comments bring us down, especially if they're coming from people whose lives we wouldn't want to trade with. I also share some useful advice: Ask yourself, is what they said really true, or are they just upset? Let’s figure out how to stay true to ourselves, even when people are being negative.
