When someone criticises us we naturally feel on edge and defensive. This is because criticism threatens our ego and our sense of self and so we have a very emotional reaction. But that doesn't have to be the case. In today's episode, we break down:
- What makes us so sensitive to criticism
- Hypercritical parenting and an aversion to feedback
- Rejection sensitivity and criticism
- The differences between criticism and feedback
- How to properly approach criticism
- When the criticism isn't worth your time
All of that and more as we unpack the psychology behind criticism. Listen now!
