Accepting praise can make many of us feel really uncomfortable, often because even when we feel proud of what we've achieved, we don't want to appear egotistical. Rather than accepting the hard won praise with polite grace, we'll often sheepishly reject the compliment or even deny it entirely, changing the conversation as quickly as we possibly can.


In this week's episode of Career Espresso, I'll be covering why it can be so hard to accept praise, even when you know you've delivered something brilliant and how you can get better at owning your achievements.


Don't forget to take a look at this week's podsheet to support and encourage further learning and exploration of the podcast topic.
