Assertiveness Skills

I teach women how to use assertiveness practices so they can set healthy boundaries at work and at home to decrease people taking advantage of or controlling them.

Assertiveness is a communication style and behavioral trait characterized by expressing one’s thoughts, needs, and desires in a direct, honest, and respectful manner while also considering the rights and feelings of others. It involves confidently standing up for oneself, expressing opinions, and asserting boundaries without being aggressive, passive, or manipulative.

Assertive individuals are able to clearly and effectively communicate their thoughts, feelings, and intentions while maintaining a sense of self-respect and respect for others. They can express their needs and wants without infringing upon the rights of others or allowing others to infringe upon their own rights.

For a passive person, who tends to avoid conflict or confrontation and often prioritizes the needs of others over their own, assertiveness may seem challenging.
