On this episode, I answered an email from one of our listeners. She wrote me for advice after she’d had a troubling conversation where her manager criticized her. I unpacked the email and provided her with some guidance.

Here's a recap of the advice I gave her. I provided six ways for her to handle the criticism:

#1. Make sure you fully get their communication. 

#2. Be a matador/avoid being defensive. 

#3. Relabel/reframe criticism as communication.

#4. Don’t be afraid of their power. 

#5. Keep in mind they’re doing the best they can. 

#6. Resolve to work on yourself.
