Boundaries and Assertiveness
Participants will have a deeper understanding for building boundaries, understanding assertiveness, and developing a healthier self worth. Sometimes being a people pleaser seems easier than being assertive. Participants will recognize that they are worth way more than that and create an ability to say ‘no’ when they want to. Participants will learn a healthy style of conducting interpersonal relationships where they don’t have to give up on their own needs and still have respect for others’ needs.
