When You're Offended - A Guide for Women With Hurt Feelings

Send us Fan Mail

You know that feeling...when you catch yourself thinking, “How could he?” or “I can’t believe he just said that.” The reality is, many women are deeply sensitive, whether we openly acknowledge it or not. That sensitivity is part of what makes us nurturing, intuitive, and impactful in roles like motherhood, teaching, and beyond. But it can also mean we feel hurt more easily, and sometimes more often.

At the same time, most of us don’t want to stay stuck replaying those moments or sitting in that hurt. After all, the basement of our mind isn't exactly a place we want to call our permanent home. We want straightforward, practical ways to move through pain or hurt feelings and regain our footing. These situations can feel especially intense in close relationships, whether it’s a husband, boyfriend, or even a close friend.

This episode offers both practical tools and a mindset shift to help you navigate those moments. It’s not just about getting through the hurt, but about gaining more control over how you respond and how you move forward. 

Drawing on insights from our best-selling book Fascinating Womanhood, we explore timeless principles, including what to do - and what to avoid - when you’ve been hurt, so you can create more peace and fulfillment in your relationships.
