In this episode of Levelheaded Talk, Dr. Andrea Vitz and Jon Leon Guerrero dive into the intriguing topic of how we perceive feedback and criticism. Dr. Vitz, an expert in emotional sobriety, shares her thoughts on why some feedback can sting and how our reactions are often shaped by past experiences and beliefs about ourselves. She candidly reflects on her own journey from feeling like a victim to embracing growth and learning.
You'll hear about the importance of recognising whether feedback comes from a place of love or an attempt to belittle. Jon adds his perspective, emphasising the value of accepting constructive criticism and understanding its potential to help us grow stronger. Throughout the episode, Dr. Vitz offers practical advice on how to handle feedback objectively, encouraging listeners to take a step back and assess whether there's truth in the criticism.
She suggests writing it down and considering ways to improve, whether through self-study or seeking external guidance. The conversation is sprinkled with humour and relatable anecdotes, making it both engaging and insightful. If you've ever felt defensive when receiving feedback or struggled with the idea of needing to be perfect to be loved, this episode is for you. Dr. Vitz's compassionate approach will inspire you to look at feedback as a tool for personal development rather than a threat.
It's a heartwarming reminder that growth is possible, even when it feels challenging. So, grab your headphones and get ready to explore how changing your perception can lead to stronger relationships and greater satisfaction in life.
