Sarcasm isn’t communication—it’s avoidance. Guilt jokes aren’t funny—they’re manipulation.
In this no-fluff episode of Success Unscripted, Jessica Rivera exposes the toxic communication habits that are destroying your influence and your relationships—especially if you’re over 30 and still calling it “just a joke.”
Jessica shares a real-life story from her own experience, backs it up with science from Harvard and Yale, and breaks down how guilt, sarcasm, and emotional reactivity are signs that it’s time to grow the hell up.
