Episode 50 - How to Be More Assertive When You Speak
Do you hesitate to speak up in meetings? Say “yes” when you really want to say “no”? Or worry that being assertive might make you seem rude or too direct? If so, this episode is for you.
We’re talking about how to be more assertive when you speak, without being aggressive, confrontational, or losing your sense of empathy. I’ll walk you through what assertive communication actually is (and what it isn’t), the three biggest barriers that keep people stuck in passive communication, and two powerful strategies you can start using today.
You’ll also hear why overthinking, fear of judgment, and people-pleasing are not personality flaws, and how you can train yourself to overcome them.
