Giving feedback is one of the most delicate things we do in relationships — especially when we care. Say it wrong, and you risk hurting someone or driving them away. Say nothing, and resentment builds. So how do you speak up without making things worse?
In this episode, Light shares a 5-step spiritual framework for expressing what’s on your mind in a way that actually strengthens connection. Whether it’s a partner, a friend, or a coworker, you’ll learn how to navigate those uncomfortable conversations with care, clarity, and compassion — so that what you say is actually heard.
This isn’t about being right. It’s about being real… without causing harm.
