What if saying “sorry” isn’t kindness — but self-doubt in disguise? And what if the key to less doubt and more respect is simply choosing a new way to speak?
In this episode, I'm showing you why "sorry" isn't creating the connection you think it is—and why it's actually making things worse.
Here's what you'll learn:
- Why apologizing when you've done nothing wrong destroys your confidence
- How saying "sorry" is a trap to avoid feeling guilty
- Why over-apologizing pushes people away instead of bringing them closer and,
- Exact phrases to use instead of "sorry"
If you people please, saying "sorry" is like trying to comb your hair with a hammer. It's the wrong tool!
