Lost in Translation: What Type 9 Hears When You Say “Be Assertive”

Listen Later

Kelly and Damon unpack how a Type 9 processes “Be assertive” and why it can feel like a threat to calm rather than an invitation to contribute. Together they map common misreads, offer gentler phrases that work, and give Nines a simple reframe to keep their voice in the room.

What’s inside:

  • How “be assertive” can land as “start conflict” (and what to say instead)
  • Gentle prompts that invite a Nine’s perspective without pressure
  • A self-check for Nines: “Are they attacking my calm or making space for my voice?”
  • Workplace & family scripts you can use today
