Why It’s Important to Gracefully Accept an Apology
“As human beings, we are all imperfect and fallible,” says Dr. Regina Lazarovich, PhD, clinical psychologist and founder of Compass CBT in California. “We all make mistakes. When we mess up, guilt and remorse tend to naturally arise. These prosocial emotions encourage us to apologize and make amends, but there's always a chance that our apology won't be accepted.
