When People Take Advantage: How to Stop Avoiding Awkward Situations

Influential Introvert: Communication Coaching for Professionals with Performance Anxiety

When you feel like you're being taken advantage of, do you speak up, or stay quiet and grumble to yourself later?
In this episode, I share a personal story about when someone tried taking me to the cleaners -- you'll get the pun after listening -- and how I successfully navigated the situation.
Get ready to explore why we feel awkward standing up for ourselves and strategies to manage this anxiety while asserting ourselves more confidently.
From retraining our brains to identifying patterns of behavior, I'll explain ways to break out of your comfort zone and start speaking up with more confidence and less anxiety.
