Every time you don’t say what you mean:
– resentment builds
– respect erodes
– opportunities pass quietly
This is a language under pressure issue.
Knowing your truth isn’t enough if you can’t speak it when it matters.
Here are a few simple lines you could try out:
“My answer hasn’t changed.”
“I’ve already shared my position.”
“I’m not available to revisit this.”
“This isn’t up for discussion.”
If you want help with this, I built Communicate Like a Bad B!tch —
a monthly practice space for women and femmes who are done abandoning themselves in conversation.
