09 | Assertiveness: What I Learned from a Cultural View Shift & 3 Communication Styles Every Person Needs to Understand in Order to Succeed

Do you think you’re pretty assertive and decent at communicating? Do you have a healthy self esteem and are you fairly confident most days? If you’re anything like my clients or myself, after this episode, you’ll likely discover that you have a lot further to go than you might have realized when it comes to communicating assertively. Assertiveness is the one thing that every client I coach tells me that they learned so much about and that this information was pivotal in creating stronger relationships and better communication.
Today, you’ll learn the different characteristics of 3 communication styles: passivity, assertiveness, and aggressiveness. Learn why all clients are surprised when they assess themselves and find they are less confident and assertive then they may have thought and learn what to do to start to improve your communication quickly. 
You’ll discover concepts from mental health professionals like Albert Ellis, Nathaniel Branden, Julie De Azevedo Hanks, and more. Gain clarity on less obvious ways assertiveness can show up in your life. 
I’ll give you key questions you can ask yourself to determine if you are living in alignment with your higher self and help you understand small steps you can take to develop clearer communication and improved mental health. 
Your path to a healthier family culture and healthier relationships starts today, my friend. Step forward into growth, my friend!

“Being assertive does not mean attacking or ignoring others feelings. It means that you are willing to hold up for yourself fairly–without attacking others.” -Albert Ellis (famous psychologist)
“The practice of assertiveness: being authentic in our dealings with others; treating our values and persons with decent respect in social contexts; refusing to fake the reality of who we are or what we esteem in order to avoid disapproval; the willingness to stand up for ourselves and our ideas in appropriate ways in appropriate contexts.” -Nathaniel Branden (famous psychotherapist and self esteem researcher)
“At its core, assertiveness is about the courage to express difference.” -Julie De Azevedo Hanks (Latter-day saint therapist and podcaster)
“Passivity allows others to decide for you. Aggressiveness decides for others. …Assertiveness decides for yourself.” -Darlene Lancer

-Arnold Schwarzenegger

07 | The Gifts of Anxiety and Depression–and How Adversity Fosters Resilience and Post-Traumatic Growth

Today we talk about the gifts of anxiety and depression. You’ll learn how paradigm shifts can help you see adversity as a powerful tool for growth–and you’ll understand just what those tools are. You’ll hear about exemplary people who navigated adversity like Louie Zamperini from Unbroken, Immaculee Illabagiza from Left to Tell, and others. 
You’ll be introduced to new concepts like “antifragility” and post traumatic growth and come to understand what they have to do with resilience–and how you can adopt a more resilient mindset in the midst of your own trials. I also include research from the latest thought leaders that will challenge some unhelpful cultural norms that have persisted for decades. You’ll explore your own hardships and how you’ve discovered priceless insights from your experiences that came about because of your experiences. 
You’ll discover how to change unhelpful narratives and how to grow in patience, wisdom, and hope–which are just some of many by-products of growth that are shared in this episode. You’ll leave with a greater understanding of adversity and what it can do for you in your life and in the lives of your loved ones. 
“I came to learn that God never shows us something we aren't ready to understand. Instead, He lets us see what we need to see, when we need to see it. He'll wait until our eyes and hearts are open to Him, and then when we're ready, He will plant our feet on the path that's best for us...but it's up to us to do the walking.”  -Immaculee Ilabagiza
“Through the fiercest fires, the finest steel is forged.” -Unknown
 
“I don’t want you to be safe ideologically. I don’t want you to be safe emotionally. I want you to be strong. That’s different. I’m not going to pave the jungle for you. Put on some boots, and learn how to deal with adversity. I’m not going to take all the weights out of the gym; that’s the whole point of the gym. This is the gym.” -The Coddling of the American Mind
“I knew that my heart and mind would always be tempted to feel anger--to find blame and hate. But I resolved that when the negative feelings came upon me, I wouldn't wait for them to grow or fester. I would always turn immediately to the Source of all true power: I would turn to God and let His love and forgiveness protect and save me.” Later she said, “If I can forgive, anyone can forgive.” -Immaculee Illabagiza
“However dark the night, however dim our hopes, the light will always follow the darkness” -Louis Zamperini
“The great lesson of my life is perseverance. Never give up. It's like my brother said, “Isn't one minute of pain worth a lifetime of glory?” -Louis Zamperini
Remember Louie’s words–”...the light will always follow the darkness.” See adversity as a gift and you’ll always find growth.
