#77: Confident Communication, with Tara Alexander. 10/15/2024

Love Is Us: Exploring Relationships and How We Connect

Tara and Karin have a lively conversation about how people, especially women and people-pleasers, can learn assertiveness, deal with conflict, set boundaries, and confidently communicate their thoughts and needs so they can live the life they want.

Tara talks though the tools she uses to help her clients assert themselves effectively in real time when under stress, including how to identify and regulate their emotions, and practice conflict in a safe, low-risk environment.

Hear Tara talk through how she helped a client struggling with burnout learn to say “no” and reclaim their life, and another to overcome the guilt associated with setting those kinds of boundaries.

Listen to this episode to help you get on the path of living your life, not the life that was prescribed to you.
