Episode 43 Show Notes: As designers, I think most of us consider our work a piece of our inner selves because creating design requires us to draw inspiration from our thoughts. So when someone challenges or criticizes our work, I think it's a bit challenging not to take it personally. In this episode, Shanique and I talk about how we equip ourselves mentally to be receptive to design feedback. We also share our worst feedback sessions and how we've grown to speak up for ourselves. Take a listen and tag @uinarrativeco on Twitter to let us know how your last design feedback session went.   Mentions:   Shanique’s Email shaniqueshields@gmail.com   Shanique’s Twitter https://twitter.com/Shanique__s   ------ Today’s sponsor, Google Design, produces original content like articles and videos to show how Google’s products come to life—and to inspire designers everywhere.
