Mean comments sting. Anyone who tells you to "just ignore the haters" is skipping the hard part. In this episode, Ginny Priem shares what happened when a podcast episode she guested on hit 156,000+ views on YouTube and the comment section turned cruel, and exactly how she handled it.

You'll learn how to deal with internet trolls, negative comments, and online criticism without taking it personally, why cruel comments say everything about the person writing them and nothing about you, and how to run online hate through the UNSUBSCRIBE™ Filter: BLOCK, MUTE, SWAP, and MANAGE.

In this episode:

• The real reason your brain takes mean comments personally (especially after narcissistic abuse or toxic relationships)
• When to block someone and why it's a boundary, not a weakness
• How to stop replaying a cruel comment in your head
• The question swap that changes how every troll comment lands
• A comment-reading protocol that protects your peace as your platform grows
• Why more exposure always means more criticism, and why that's actually a good sign
•

We talk a lot about saying no, protecting your time, and setting boundaries. And even honoring your own bandwidth.

But what about when someone tells you no?

This week, Ginny flips the script and shares two real-life stories from the past week. They make the case better than any framework ever could. From a photographer fresh off a Scotland trip who couldn't make it to a puppy's debut photo shoot, to a friend whose Saturday plans turned into a Sunday morning visit, the lesson is the same: how you handle someone else's "no" says everything about where you are in your own growth.

Plus! Fritz Carlton has entered the chat. Head to Instagram (@ginnypriem) to see the announcement and the most adorable photo shoot you'll see all year.

In this episode:

• Why being busy and being productive are not the same thing
• What you're unconsciously making someone else's "no" mean about you
• How to MUTE the story your brain writes when plans change or fall through
• The UNSUBSCRIBE™ Filter applied to one of the hardest emotional habits to break ... taking cancellations personally

This one is worth sharing with someone who has a hard time saying no, hearing no, or holding it together when plans change. You know someone. Send it.

Last week, two different speaking audiences reacted in ways Ginny didn't expect. On today's episode of UNSUBSCRIBE™, she breaks down a custom interactive session for county social workers and a virtual session for HR professionals that took an unplanned technical turn. Both experiences reframed what she thought about her own performance, and what that says about who actually gets to decide if something went well.

This episode covers self-perception and imposter syndrome, and what it actually looks like to unsubscribe from your own internal scorecard.
