How to Give Feedback That Lands

How do we give feedback that actually lands, and how do we stay human in the process? In this second installment of our three-part series, clinical psychologist and anti-racism leader Dr. Roxy Manning and relational neuroscience expert Sarah Peyton return to explore the layered realities of communication at work. Alongside neurobiology and workplace culture expert Rajkumari Neogy, they unpack what it really means to listen, respond, and build trust—even when conversations feel tense or stuck.

This conversation is not about delivering feedback perfectly. It is about staying in relationship. From resonance to self-compassion, the trio reveal what is often missing in leadership: the courage to slow down, stay curious, and meet defensiveness with care.

Tune in to learn:
• Why process feedback matters more than content
• How to introduce resonance into tough conversations
• The brain science behind self-compassion and leadership
• Ways to work with transactional leaders who resist connection
• What to do when someone shuts down or deflects feedback

Discover how communication can become a tool for clarity, connection, and cultural change—where feedback is no longer a threat, but a pathway to trust.
