When Criticism Is GoodReal change doesn’t happen quietly — and it never happens comfortably.In this episode, Fatima Bey The MindShifter breaks down the truth about criticism: when people push back, get uncomfortable, or call you “too much,” it often means you’re shifting something they didn’t want touched.From social movements to personal boundaries to a life-changing moment with a group of teenage girls, Fatima uncovers why discomfort is a necessary part of growth — and how to tell the difference between harmful criticism and the kind that confirms you’re on the right path.If you’ve ever wondered whether you should tone yourself down, hold back the truth, or shrink to keep the peace… this one will wake you up.🔗 Read the full blog post:https://www.fatimabey.com/when-criticism-is-good🕰 Chapters00:00 – Intro: The MindShifter Audio Blog00:14 – When Criticism Means You’re Doing It Right01:25 – What People REALLY Mean When They Complain03:40 – Why Discomfort Is Necessary for Change04:55 – The Teen Girls Who Needed the Truth06:40 – When Criticism Is a Warning (Not a Badge of Honor)08:10 – Discomfort vs. Harm: How to Tell the Difference09:30 – Personal Life: Boundaries, Courage, and Pushback10:16 – Shift To💬 Key Moments“Real change pisses people off.”“Stop making me face things I don’t want to face.”“Discomfort is not the same as harm.”“Your courage makes them uncomfortable because they’re afraid.”“The criticism isn’t proof you’re wrong — it’s proof you’re dangerous to the things that need to die.”Read the full transcript on Listen Notes.Thank you for listening.For more MindShifting content and resources: https://www.fatimabey.comSubscribe to The MindShifter Blog: https://www.fatimabey.com/blog1#1701160625Explore MindShift Coaching and other services: https://www.fatimabey.com/mindshift-coachingSupport The MindShifter Audio Blog: https://www.fatimabey.com/audio-blog-support Hosted on Acast.
