Summary

Today, I’m joined by Amy Armstrong, a conflict resolution coach and founder of the Center for Family Resolution. In this episode, Amy shares how she went from chronic people-pleaser to courageous truth-teller—and how you can too. We talk about the power of “Yes Energy,” how to set boundaries without being brutal, and the surprising difference between just using communication skills and truly embodying them. You’ll also learn about the levels of listening and how to create the right “green light” moments for tough conversations at work and at home. This is a rich conversation filled with practical tips, personal insight, and a message we all need: you can speak up and still be kind. Let’s dive in.
