Description
Presented by:
We were all raised to be ‘nice’. Which is fine, except that ‘nice’ meant never expressing what you wanted, never saying ‘no’ and never having an opinion different from anyone else.
While we hear a lot of talk about “Assertiveness”, the lean-in chatter and “bossy” talk, it is more of a theoretical buzzword for women at their workplace. We all know that it’s not always easy to identify truly assertive behavior and it is even more difficult to find that sweet spot between being a “pit bull" to a complete “pushover”!!!
But here’s the good news, assertiveness isn't an always innate ability, but a learned skill. And like any other skill, it takes a few simple steps to find your groove.
Join the Chilliwack Chamber & Khyati Shetti for an empowering workshop where we delve into the art of crafting assertive no's for empowered living.
Discover how to overcome 'no-o-phobia' and embrace the power of setting boundaries with confidence and grace. Learn practical strategies to navigate difficult conversations, advocate for yourself, and cultivate healthier relationships both personally and professionally.
Don't let fear hold you back from living your most authentic and empowered life. It's time to say yes to saying no!
