Hurt Feelings: A Straight but Compassionate Approach
🎙 Straightway Through with Gina — Helping you speak with clarity, courage, and connection.
Episode 7: Hurt Feelings: A Straight but Compassionate Approach
Episode Summary:
When someone steps on your feelings, it hurts. And while people may tell you to “let it go” or “don’t be offended,” the truth is—that rarely works.
Your feelings are valid. What matters most is what you do with them, and how you move forward.
In this episode, I talk with coach Susan Stern about navigating hurt feelings with compassion, especially for those who tend to over-give.
We also talk briefly about the book Unoffendable by Brant Hansen - a book I'm going to read after our discussion. Maybe you will too?
Meet Today’s Guest:
Susan Stern is a board-certified life coach passionate about helping over-givers set loving boundaries so they have more time & energy.
When it comes to communication, she most seeks understanding, and works on having less fluff, and more clarity in her communications.
