Welcome to Real Talk with Pippa, Siobhan, Lorraine, and Hayley — the unapologetically honest podcast where we dive deep into real life, real business, and real conversations.
In this episode, the ladies confront a topic we all wrestle with: brutally honest feedback. Why do people hold back? Why is it hard to give or receive truth-telling that could actually fuel your personal or professional growth? And what happens when we don’t speak up?
From people-pleasing tendencies, to friendship fallouts, to the emotional minefield of giving feedback in business and relationships, the Real Talk team shares stories, strategies, and raw reflections on how feedback – when delivered with love and intention – can be a catalyst for transformation.
In this episode, we discuss:
The difference between honest feedback vs. harmful criticism
How to deliver tough truths with compassion
Navigating defensiveness in close relationships
Feedback in leadership, team management, and client relationships
The psychological triggers behind our fear of confrontation
Real stories of feedback gone right… and very wrong
Why feedback is essential for personal development and business growth
The art of asking permission before offering advice
Plus, we wrap with a hilarious chat about the random stuff we’ve all been buying online lately (spoiler alert: collagen creams and TikTok finds galore).
Perfect for listeners who:
Are entrepreneurs, creatives, or business leaders
Struggle with giving or receiving constructive feedback
Want to improve communication in relationships
We are working on personal development and mindset growth
Enjoy candid, heartfelt discussions with real women keeping it 100%
