Podcasts about Compliments

In this episode, Cindy Esliger examines the difference between actionable feedback and constant validation. While it's always wonderful to get compliments on work, and those are necessary to boost morale, seeking only positive praise will inhibit meaningful growth. It's the honest critique and useful feedback that helps us course correct and sharpen our strengths. Cindy discusses how to break free of compliment-only cravings to seek out and embrace critical feedback for growth. She lays out a plan for obtaining the right kind of input.  Encouragement is essential for building confidence and keeping us motivated through the initial learning curves in our careers. But as the stakes rise, compliments become less helpful. We start prioritizing feeling good over getting better, and that leads to a career plateau. We all have blind spots about ourselves and our own skills, ingrained habits holding us back that can only be identified by someone outside ourselves. Cindy stresses the importance of this honest, outside feedback in helping us develop.Not all feedback is constructive, however. We need to ensure we're getting actionable, thoughtful critiques. How do we ask for that kind of feedback? Cindy shares five strategic moves with us: 1. Be crystal clear in our requests, 2. Ask specific questions, 3. Make it as safe as possible for others to tell us the truth, 4. Listen without defensiveness, and 5. Act on what we learn. She also identifies seven common pitfalls to avoid when seeking feedback. Armed with the advice and guidance Cindy offers in this episode, we can all head into work to ask for the input we need for advancement.  Resources discussed in this episode:Guide to Choosing Growth Over ComfortAstronomic AudioConfidence Collective—Contact Cindy Esliger Career Confidence Coaching: website | instagram | facebook | linkedin | email

July 16, 2025Today's Reading: Galatians 4:12-31Daily Lectionary: Judges 16:4-30; Judges 17:1-21:25; Galatians 4:12-31“Have I then become your enemy by telling you the truth?” (Galatians 4:16)In the Name + of Jesus. Amen. Good news is fun to share. Compliments are fun to give. People tend to enjoy having you around when you say something nice or positive. And yet, it seems that when times of trials, sin, or struggles come along… people are less likely to enjoy hearing about that. “Don't connect God's Name to things He hasn't said or hasn't promised.” “Stop hurting your neighbor.” “Gossiping is lying.” “A baby is a gift from God.” “Marriage is a reflection of Jesus and His Church.” It seems as though the saying “don't blame the messenger” does not apply when speaking what someone doesn't want to hear. Paul, in this letter to churches in Galatia, is wondering at their treatment of him and his words; he suggests that they are seeing him as an ‘enemy' now. What changed? Well, sin taints everything. The recipients of this letter, and we today, do not like hearing messages that hurt our feelings or speak against our favorite sins. And yet, look at what Paul says is the ‘reason' the Galatians are treating him as an enemy… he is telling them the truth! But, what is The Truth? The Truth is you are not enough on your own; you are sinful, dead, and selfish. The Truth is, you are lost. And yet, there is more! The Truth is that you were rescued from your sinfulness and selfishness. The Truth is that in Baptism, you were brought to life, covered by Jesus, forgiven, and redeemed. The Truth is that you have a Savior, Jesus, Who paid for all of your sins and covers all of your hurts. The Truth is you are enough in Christ; You are in God's family and are loved. So, why is this message (The Truth) not well received? We sinners love control and really would prefer to live by our own works. We, like the Galatians, want to mix a little of our own efforts with the Gospel of Jesus. We want to define, adjust, or decide what is right or wrong. Repent, dear forgiven sinner. The Truth of your sinfulness and your rescue is what we daily cling to and confess. Receive the message of your ‘sinner status' with humility and rejoice that it is for sinners that Jesus died and rose again. Rest in your Baptism. Receive Jesus' Body and Blood. Hear the Truth with joy. And when you are sharing the Truth with those around you, whether they receive or reject it, know that The Truth rests on Jesus and not on us (or others). It is with great assurance that we live in grace and speak to others with hope. In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.He canceled my offenses, Delivered me from death; He is the Lord who cleanses My soul from sin through faith. In Him I can be cheerful, Courageous on my way; In Him I am not fearful Of God's great Judgment Day. (LSB 724:3)- Deac. Sarah Longmire, Bible study editor for Higher Things.Audio Reflections Speaker: Pastor Jonathan Lackey is the pastor at Grace Lutheran Church, Vine Grove, KY.Step back in time to the late Reformation and learn about a divisive yet inspirational figure: Matthias Flacius Illyricus. His contributions to Lutheranism still echo in our teachings today, from the Magdeburg Confession to parts of the Lutheran Confessions. Learning about Flacius's life will help you understand more intricacies of the Reformation than ever before.

Receiving praise can feel good. But it can also feel uncomfortable. Should you say something nice back? Brush it off? Make a self-deprecating comment? Many of us were never taught how to accept compliments, but there's science to back up the benefits of receiving and giving kudos.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Est-ce que vous aussi, quand on vous complimente, vous perdez le contrôle ? La température monte d'un coup, vos joues deviennent rouges et vous renvoyez en ping pong un compliment à la personne qui vous en adressé un ? Ou peut-être que vous optez pour l'option “je fais semblant de ne rien avoir entendu”, ou encore la minimisation. Dans l'espoir qu'enfin, l'attention se détourne de vous…Pourquoi un compliment, censé nous faire plaisir, peut-il être mal vécu ? Pourquoi, au lieu de créer un lien avec l'autre, peut-il créer un moment un peu gênant dont on peine à sortir ? Qu'est-ce qu'il se passe en nous quand on nous complimente ? Comment faire pour apprendre à dire tout simplement merci ?

“You're a hero.” “Thank you for your service.” For many first responders, those words don't land the way civilians think they do. In this episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton unpack why praise can feel so uncomfortable (Amazon Affiliate)—and what's really happening under the surface when you find yourself deflecting a compliment. Praise is meant to honor your service—but for some, it brings on guilt, awkwardness, or even resentment. Whether it's because of survivor's guilt, imposter syndrome, or simply being conditioned to stay humble, deflecting compliments becomes a habit… and one that might be robbing you of meaningful connection. In this episode, we explore the psychology behind discomfort with praise, and how to respond in a way that honors both your service and the person expressing gratitude.

Let me know your thoughts about the podcast. Thank you for listening!The silent relationship killer might be lurking in your everyday conversations. That seemingly innocent comment about the dishes left unwashed or the forgotten errand isn't just a passing remark—it's potentially erasing the protective layer keeping your relationship safe from harm.Through my years of relationship coaching, I've discovered a powerful truth: criticism acts exactly like wiping sunscreen off someone at the beach, while compliments reapply that essential protection. Each critical word strips away the safeguards you've built together, leaving your connection vulnerable to the burning rays of resentment and disconnection. This metaphor has transformed how countless couples communicate, helping them recognize the true impact of their words.Ready to transform your relationship through the power of words? Start by finding one genuine compliment to share with your partner today. Then watch what happens when you consistently choose to apply sunscreen rather than wipe it away. Your relationship deserves this protection—and so do you.

Jaz open ups about her truly chaotic miami night—so chaotic, in fact, that the debrief is actually a rollercoaster & missing some parts, because well, she did in fact BLACK OUT. the girls dive into the group dynamics of the trip, the surprising joys of meeting online mutuals IRL, and the dangerous game of airport roulette via Newark and Miami International.they also get real about the pressure of online personas versus real-life energy, awkward post-lunch pregnancy assumptions, and pre-wedding tea in a way only they can—raw, hilarious, and just a little unhinged. Jaz shares the moment her shoe guy thought she was pregnant, Halley talks overpriced fitness classes, and they discuss why Miami is both their least favorite and somehow still fun city.it's a kinda insane catch-up filled with overshares, giggles, and a strong PSA: be very careful with martinis and Miami.

I'm Josh Kopel, a Michelin-awarded restaurateur and the creator of the Restaurant Scaling System. I've spent decades in the industry, building, scaling, and coaching restaurants to become more profitable and sustainable. On this show, I cut through the noise to give you real, actionable strategies that help independent restaurant owners run smarter, more successful businesses.In this episode, I get into something most restaurant owners overlook — branding. Look, great food is the baseline. It gets you in the game, but it's not what keeps the dining room full. What really moves the needle is a compelling brand story — something that makes people feel seen, understood, and part of something bigger than just a meal. I walk through how to build that kind of connection with your guests. From shaping your brand identity to refining your marketing efforts, I lay out the strategies that drive traffic and build loyalty. If you're ready to stop being “just another restaurant” and start standing out in a crowded market, this one's for you.TakeawaysMoney is the primary problem for restaurants.Great food is expected; branding is essential.Diners need a reason to care beyond the plate.A restaurant's brand should evoke feelings of belonging.Compliments do not equate to customer conversions.Stories about the restaurant are crucial for marketing.Reframe your restaurant's concept to attract the right audience.Audit your brand from a stranger's perspective.Identify ways your brand can stand out beyond food.Building a memorable experience is key to success.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Restaurant Profitability02:06 The Importance of Branding in Restaurants06:00 Building a Memorable Restaurant ExperienceIf you've got a marketing or profitability related question for me, email me directly at josh@joshkopel.com and include Office Hours in the subject line.
