Learning to Say 'I'm Sorry'

from The David Magee Show · host That Sounds Fun Network

Few words are more powerful than “I’m sorry,” yet those two words can be some of the hardest to say. Admitting we’ve done something wrong challenges the story we tell ourselves about who we are. In this episode, I talk about why apologies are so difficult, what psychology and neuroscience say about it, and why learning to say a sincere “I’m sorry” can repair relationships, restore trust, and even double the likelihood of forgiveness.
