Sheryl Crow on the Power of Not Taking Things Personally
About this episode
What do you do when someone criticizes you, underestimates you, or makes you question your worth? In this episode, I sit down with Grammy Award-winning artist Sheryl Crow to talk about handling criticism, letting go of other people's opinions, and finding peace when life doesn't go as planned. Sheryl shares the advice that changed how she responds to negativity, what Dolly Parton taught her about confidence and kindness, and why sometimes the most powerful response is no response at all.
