Episode 7: The One Where She Talks About Unsolicited Feedback & Opinions

The holidays are approaching and you know what that means! Family gatherings are back!! Well, for some of us, anyway.And while I know many of us are looking forward to spending time with our loved ones, many of us...well...aren't. Many of us get bombarded with questions or unsolicited feedback on our love lives, parenting choices, jobs...I mean really, there's no topic off limits when someone feels inclined to give you their two cents (and sometimes it feels like a quarters' worth).If you're like me, you often feel like a deer in headlights, and find yourself suddenly having conversations you'd rather not have. But what if you approached things differently this year? What if, instead of listening to Uncle Mark ramble on about your parenting style, you just said "This topic isn't up for discussion," and moved on? Crazy, right?I invite you to take a listen if family gatherings are something you want to love, but don't. Maybe this will help! And if it doesn't, be sure to stock up on the spiked eggnog! (And maybe stash a little sumpin' sumpin' in your bag too)For more fun and insightful insights, you can find me @awakentheextraordinary on Instagram, or email me at [email protected].
