Summary
Why do apologies feel so vulnerable, so loaded, and sometimes almost impossible to give sincerely? In this first episode of my new series, The Work, I unpack the emotional outsourcing habits that shape the way we approach apologies, responsibility, defensiveness, shame, and conflict.
You’ll learn the difference between intent and impact, why “I’m sorry but…” disconnects instead of repairs, and how to use apologies as a tool for deeper honesty, emotional adulthood, and stronger relationships. If you’ve ever found yourself overexplaining, defending your intentions, or feeling resentment even while saying “I’m sorry,” this episode will help you understand what’s really happening underneath those apology patterns.

| 1:22.1 | couple weeks, I am sharing a series called The Work. These are conversations about the subtle emotional patterns that shape |
| 1:29.7 | the way we relate to ourselves, to other people, and change itself, of course, through the |
| 1:34.8 | lens of emotional outsourcing. Here's the thing. A lot of these patterns are so familiar, we don't |
