Episode 9: Communicating Our Needs is Kind with Comfort Woods

“Comfort went through life staying quiet so she could fit in with the crowd and was a perpetual people pleaser. After hitting her rock bottom, it felt like she was starting over from scratch. The thought of that is horrifying, but it also can be thrilling.”

Ways to Engage: Do you have expectations that people know of automatically or do you communicate them? What stops you from communicating your expectations or boundaries with people? It’s important to be clear with people rather than making assumptions, even if it’s difficult to communicate your expectations at first.
