Summary
How hard is it for you to apologize when you hurt someone? Do you find yourself starting the apology with "I'm sorry you feel…" "I'm sorry you think…" or "sorry, but I was tired?" Do people feel understood when you apologize, or does it make things worse?
In today's episode, I am going to outline some bad apology habits and then share some tips for how you can avoid them in your life to give satisfying, authentic apologies when you accidentally hurt the people you love.
