This is great stuff! It is also personally challenging. I, at times find it very difficult to be direct when speaking with people because I am afraid to offend. What is all that about then? If I do offend someone, I’ll likely hold on to that emotion more than the person I have offended if I’m aware that is what I did.
Very funny video too. Thank you
