69 - Voice

Full transcript here 👋 Hey, good morning, good afternoon, good evening. This is your life. This is your chance. Listen. The word for today is voice. Do you feel heard? Do you have a place to speak your mind? Psychological safety is the idea that you should feel good about sharing your thoughts with others. It’s a key component to high performing teamwork, but it’s also vital in your personal relationships. Do people around you feel that they have psychological safety with you? Do they have a voice? Today’s concrete challenge is to ask people in your life if they feel that they have psychological safety with you. Ask this question: “Do I make you feel like you can share your thoughts without fear of negative consequences?” It might feel a little awkward, but there are many areas of life that work better after a little awkwardness. If you want to commit, say the following phrase: “I will ask them now or set a time to have this conversation.” I’ll keep the music playing while you get it done, and don’t miss the soundtrack at the end of this episode. Before you go, repeat the following soundtrack, “I am the kind of person who creates psychological safety.” Let me know if this made a difference in your day by leaving a comment in your podcast app or at concrete.win/today. Check back tomorrow for a new challenge. Until then.
