Hi, everyone! Welcome back to "From Both Sides of the Couch" with me, Dr. Laurie Bruce, your friendly but direct, clinical psychologist and mindfulness coach. Today, we're diving into a topic that's crucial for every busy, badass woman I know - assertiveness. It's more than just a buzzword; it's the ability to say what's on your mind respectfully, balancing your needs with those of others. We’ll explore why being assertive is so freaking hard, including research on how boys and girls are treated differently in early childhood. I'll also teach you an acronym called VOICE to show you exactly HOW to be assertive, if you feel like you are starting at square one.
Looking for a coach who really understands you? Schedule a free 20 min Discovery Call to discuss your personal and professional goals and we will see if we are a good fit for each other:
