How to Shut Down Someone Trying to Provoke You

from The Jefferson Fisher Podcast · host Civility Media

Some conversations test your patience. Others test your character. In this call-in episode, I answer your questions about staying calm when emotions run high, setting boundaries with the people you love, handling conflict with confidence, and responding without losing yourself. How do you get people to like you? What do you do with an estranged parent? I answer your questions.
