Send us a textEver walked out of a feedback session more confused, frustrated, or defensive than when you walked in? You’re not alone, and it’s probably not what was said, but how it was said.In this episode of Speaking With Confidence, I break down the real reason most feedback sabotages relationships: it ignores personality. Using the DISC model, I walk through how different communication styles process feedback, and why a “feedback sandwich” just isn’t cutting it anymore.From understanding the neurological triggers of defensiveness to using the SBI model (Situation, Behavior, Impact) to shape clearer conversations, I’ll show you how to turn your feedback from friction into fuel for real growth. We’ll also talk about why future-focused feedback works better, how to use active listening skills in tough conversations, and what it takes to become a powerful communicator who builds trust, even during hard talks.This episode is for you if:You’re tired of feedback turning into a standoffYou want to lead with empathy and clarityYou’re working on your confidence in public speaking, or just in everyday conversationsWe don’t get better by sugarcoating. We get better by communicating clearly, confidently, and with intention.Want more?
