Learn How to Apologize

Learn how to apologize meaningfully, if you truly want to be in integrity. Otherwise, you will likely end up repeating the harm that led to the need for an apology in the first place. We’ve seen this recently with a number of highly visible people. This isn’t surprising since, like so most aspects of relating to others in a healthy way, apologies aren’t something we’re taught how to do. However, I do find the blundering of the apology particularly ironic with those in the self-help space because the root of a meaningful apology is in personal growth. We all make mistakes. You don’t know what you don’t know, so mistakes are necessary for us to learn to do better. And that is the key… learning to do better. A true apology sets the foundation for being more of the person we say we want to be. In this episode of Unlimited, I’m exploring the mindset and action when you learn how to apologize in a meaningful way. Some of what I’ll cover in this episode include: When not to apologize Saying “it’s okay”, when it’s not okay Self-serving apologies vs healing apologies Humility vs Humiliation Creating space for learning and personal growth Setting healthy boundaries Thank you for listening!
