Manage episode 365085649 series 3454302
Listen as last week's guest takes on a topic he had not anticipated-- external self-awareness. In this episode, MJ helps guide this young man with how to take feedback from others so he can answer the question, Who Am I? more fully. Being open to feedback is a learned skill. MJ shares a process she created to help manage the natural demon of defensiveness which often causes us to shrug off helpful information about ourself. You'll love the practical application of this episode as this guest moves from being a shrugger to a hugger.
