As humans, we all have needs that must be met - and they’re all valid. Asking for what we want, though, can be tricky business! For the sake of “politeness”, sometimes we brush our own needs aside. Other times, we make demands too aggressively. Where is the happy medium?
In this episode, Molly and Tricia discuss how to communicate in a pleasantly assertive way to ensure our needs (and those of others!) are met. We use personal examples of not being in that happy medium and share strategies we’ve learned along the way.
**Please excuse this episode’s poor audio quality. We ran into some technical difficulties that have since been resolved.**
*note: we aim to keep our episodes unscripted and (largely) unedited to provide an example of communication in its natural form.*
