Drowning In Timidity: Women, Politeness, And The Power Of Assertive Living
$15.61
... provides the tools and insights needed for extending both the power and benefits of assertiveness beyond occasional use to improve our every day, so that we begin to communicate more clearly, advocate for ourselves and others firmly (but not aggressively), and embrace the responsibility for intervening in the world around us as active bystanders, with the goal of creating a fairer more equitable world for ourselves, our friends and families, and others. Using real-life examples to expose the tensions and resentments that arise due to the absence of assertiveness in our friendships, romantic and sexual relationships, family dynamics, workplaces, and communities, Cara Tuttle Bell uses the foundations of assertiveness training to motivate us to prioritize our needs, voice our wants, engage with others directly and fairly -- along with the non-negotiable duty to receive assertiveness, as well, as we strive to engage in authentic allyship and build solidarity among women and across movements. --
