Turn Dismissiveness Around: Words that Command Respect

Someone brushes off their rude comments with, “It was just a joke.” Or they tell you, “Don’t take it personally,” or, “You’re too sensitive.”

In this episode, I’m sharing 3 simple ways to respond to dismissive comments.

These strategies will help you protect your self-esteem, stand your ground, and respond to dismissive comments with confidence.
