Whether you are giving advice when it hasn’t been requested or receiving advice that you haven’t asked for, there is potential for a direct and damaging hit to trust in the relationship. The messages - often unintentional - that are sent revolve around us not trusting the other person’s competence or them not trusting ours. Ila and Charles have an eye-opening discussion about why people jump to offer advice when not asked, what messages it sends when we do, and what we can say when we want to offer help so it is received in the way it is intended.
We want to thank the team that continues to support us in producing, editing and sharing our work. Jonah Smith for the heartfelt intro music you hear at the beginning of each podcast. We LOVE it. Hillary Rideout for writing descriptions, designing covers and helping us share our work on social media. Chad Penner for his superpower editing work to take our recordings from bumpy and glitchy to smooth and easy to listen to episodes for you to enjoy. From our hearts, we are so thankful for this team and the support they provide us.
