Objectively, there is more to it. It might be uncomfortable, but sometimes a little coaching is useful feedback. Take a look at what happened to Ronda Rousey over the weekend. Complete lack of preparation. A cornerfull of yes men...&quot;your doing great&quot;...after round #1 etc. Unknown challenger meanwhile was methodically breaking her down. Point is there is a balance to he had from motivation and positive re-inforcement with some actual feedback...so you don&#x27;t get blindsided. I think the only real questions is about whether that convo is best in in public vs private. There <i>is</i> some awkward in this essay. Some of it seems un-neccesary, and maybe could have been re-worked to make the points hit home without it.
