This episode is about how that happens, why it slowly kills emotional safety in a relationship, and what it actually looks like to take accountability without making it about you.In this episode:Why "that's not what I meant" is one of the most damaging things you can say when someone tells you they're hurting. The difference between a real apology and a defensive one dressed up to look like one. What emotional safety actually is, and why being a good person and causing harm can both be true at the same time.If this hit home, share it with someone who needs to hear it.
