I absolutely love this analogy of how feedback is like throwing and catching a ball. So incredibly true. One of my favorite questions for the feedback receiver is not "is this true" but "HOW is this true?" and to have them sit in the question.
Such a great question Christine! So hard to sit with that discomfort and entertain the possibility that something we'd love to dismiss, might be worth considering... 🤔 (It's right up there with "what if I'm wrong?" 😅) So instead of treating the ball like a hot potato, and throwing it right back – or away – we hold on to it for a bit.💡
