Standing up for yourself is an impressive feat.

But there are ways standing up for yourself can make the situation worst.

In this episode I cover 6 things of what not to do when standing up for yourself.

I then cover what to do instead, so you can stand up for yourself with confidence and assertiviness.

Listen now!

You might have assumed they understood, but when you realize they're hurt and upset, they don't want to talk to you anymore.

It's easy to think they should have known or that since you didn't mean to hurt them, an apology isn't necessary. But if roles were reversed, you might not have been hurt or upset either.

However, taking this stance could potentially worsen your relationship.

In a recent personal experience, I made an assumption that deeply upset someone close to me. What helped me resolve the situation were two key approaches:

1. Understanding how my actions hurt them, regardless of my intentions.
2. Approaching the conversation with accountability and kindness.
