178: Begin Where You Are: The Truth About Healthy Communication
Update: 2025-06-05
Description
In this episode, I challenge everything you think you know about assertive communication - it's not about being aggressive or demanding, but about being authentically you through honest, direct, respectful, and appropriate communication. I explore how women especially have been conditioned to prioritize being "kind and soft" over speaking truthfully, and why the people who benefit from us staying quiet wrote those limiting rules in the first place. We'll dive into practical ways to practice healthy communication. Remember, your voice matters, your needs matter, and healthy relationships require all four elements: honesty, directness, respect, and appropriateness - so begin where you are and start saying what you mean.
