About this listen
In this episode, we dive into a discussion about things you should never say to someone preparing for surgery.
Whether it’s a close friend, family member, or colleague, your words can have a profound impact on their emotional well-being, and even their physical outcome. We explore 20 common but misguided comments and questions —ranging from “You’re lucky it’s not worse” to “What if you don't wake up?”—and explain how these statements can increase fear and anxiety.
This episode will teach you compassionate alternatives for each of these no-no statements, and how to offer words of comfort and reassurance.
Perfect for anyone looking to support their loved ones, this episode will empower you to approach the sensitive time prior to surgery with kindness and understanding.
