🗓️ FREE TRAINING: High Performance Under High Pressure – September 9th at 3pm ET (replay available): https://melodywilding.com/highperformance 

—

If you feel like a pushover at work – as if you set limits but people ignore your requests – this episode is for you. Melody breaks down the subtle ways you may be sending the message that your boundaries don’t matter, and how to start commanding the same respect you already give your boss, colleagues, and customers. 

What You’ll Discover:

  • Why your teammate keeps dumping last-minute requests on you despite your obvious stress
  • How to reset relationships that are testing you without seeming confrontational or difficult
  • The framing that makes you look unprofessional instead of protecting your reputation
  • The 2-second swap to avoid sounding defensive when pushing back on requests
  • How to address disrespectful treatment even if you're worried about appearing oversensitive or causing conflict
