Listener question: I know I'm a direct person, but I'm being told I'm aggressive. How do I know the difference? 


I have personal experience with this topic in two different different ways and suggestions of how to navigate them: 

  • First, you need to ask for specific examples of situations in which you were labeled “aggressive.” 
  • Then, you need to explore what type of discomfort you want to choose: shifting your communication or allowing others to feel discomfort. 
  • Finally, you get to decide who you want to be in each situation, including changing your situation.
