*This episode was pre-recorded at the end of the summer of 2020.In today's episode, we discuss something that many of us know we should do but don't always, and that is to reflect before we act.Over the years that I've been working as a freelancer, in-house, and as a studio owner, I've found myself jumping to conclusions on feedback I deemed negative or "uncalled for" only to reflect and review it later and see that I was wrong or I simply over reacted to it.It takes a lot to admit that. It's not an easy thing to do either, but I've found many of us do it.Whether it's with a client or even a loved one, the secret to any relationship is not to react to your first instinct but instead to give yourself some time and reflect on it. If it's an email, re-read it later when you've got a clearer head.If you'd like to check out a blog post I wrote that discusses this very topic and goes a bit deeper.So if you have any questions, please feel free to ask them on my Instagram account or Twitter, and please remember to subscribe if you enjoyed this first new podcast episode of 2021! (:Always remember to stay Passionate, Positive, and Creative!
