What about your friiiends! (in my 1990's TLC voice) Welcome Back, Loves. It's time for a Look On The Bright Side. However, today it won't be easy because we are talking about unsupportive people.
Negative people can pick apart a dream or idea and leave you doubting yourself if you give them the power to do so. In this episode, I share how to handle unsupportive friends, comments, and everything in between.
Episode Highlights:
- [00:04:00] How negativity shows up in our lives
- [00:06:52] How to deescalate conversations
- [00:07:40] Lack of support or valid concerns -- how to discern
- [00:08:40] How our bodies react to negativity
- [00:09:49] Whatever you do --don't respond like this
- [00:14:21] A lesson in redirection
Takeaways:
- Dealing with unsupportive friends also means that YOU and I have to manage our triggers, leading to better outcomes.
- Learning how to deescalate arguments and strategize is a necessary skill in business and romantic relationships - by developing this skill, you can create synergy in all relationships.
- Creative entrepreneurs need to surround themselves with positivity - without creating environments where your team - or partner- feel comfortable telling you their concerns. The tips I shared in the podcast will help you keep the communication lines open while protecting your energy.
