Summary
If you freeze in the moment or say yes when you really want to say no, this episode gives you words you can use and a way to stand behind them. You will learn why freezing is a trauma response, why pausing is the first move, and how to use one simple line to buy time: let me get back to you. Barb Nangle also breaks down the difference between a boundary and control so you can stop managing other people’s feelings and focus on your responsibility. You will hear scripts like that is not going to work for me and not at this time, plus how resentment can be your signal that it is time to set or shore up a boundary. You will leave with a grounded next step you can practice today. Subscribe to Leaders Lead and leave a 5 star review. It helps the right people find the show.
