PART 2: Learning Assertive Communication Styles That Work For HSPs

Part two of the assertiveness series for my Highly Sensitive Tribe. We break down passive, aggressive, passive-aggressive, and assertive communication through one workplace scenario with Julie and her micromanaging boss Molly. Same situation, four completely different outcomes depending on how Julie handles it. Assertiveness isn't just nicer communication - it gathers the real data you need to figure out if this job can actually meet your needs or if it's time to move on.
