What feelings began to well up in you simply reading those words?

Having an uncomfortable conversation with feedback?

Did a person pop up into your awareness? A particular memory or moment in time? A past conversation? Or possibly a future one that you know needs to happen?

There are so many feelings wrapped up in being in the discomfort of giving and receiving feedback. Whether from your own experiences or from the societal expectations around “being nice”, “not rocking the boat” and “keeping the peace” — which somehow all communicate to not have the uncomfortable conversations of providing feedback or further considerations.

It’s so fascinating that these ideas prevent us from deepening into sacred and sovereign connections with one another. They keep us on the surface, wondering why we feel so disconnected.

It is in the discomfort that we lovingly toil the ground of our relationships. It is our willingness to open our mouth and say the thing that is on our heart that nourishes the richness of connection.

On today’s episode of the Devoted Way Podcast I am coming together with Katherine, a Devoted Team Member, and we are getting real with our own experiences around giving and receiving feedback. What this has looked like in our own relationships and how uncomfortable conversations are a place of deep growth inside of Devoted Energy Coaching School. I can’t wait for you to listen in.

Reflection Questions:

1. What feelings rise up for you when you consider having an uncomfortable conversation where you will receive feedback? What about giving feedback? Are they different?
2. How do you feel about being in your own discomfort?
3. As a sacred leader, what is an action you can take to increase your capacity to stay with yourself, and those you are in relationship with, in the midst of uncomfortable conversations?
