Episode Synopsis

We'd love to hear from you!Why do we say “sorry” so often — even when there’s nothing to apologize for? In this episode, we dig into the psychology, neuroscience, and social conditioning behind our habit of over-apologizing. From the “likability penalty” to the way our brains wire habits in the limbic system, you’ll hear why “sorry” slips out so reflexively — and how to retrain your words so they carry more power.
