Siri's Lesson: Asking for What You Want with Confidence

But sometimes I feel like I'm being bossy and I don't like to be bossy. I know that it is a word that can be problematic. She's stating what she wants and she's going to get what she wants, but sometimes okay.
Ever struggled to clearly state what you need? In this episode of 'Discovering Our Scars', hosts Steph and Beth dive into the art of asking for what you want. Inspired by voice assistants like Siri and Alexa, they discuss how these digital helpers can teach us a thing or two about clear communication. If Siri needs a precise command to function, why should human interactions be any different?
Whether it's with your boss, a co-worker, or even a home improvement contractor, knowing what you want and expressing it clearly is key. But why is it that when women are assertive, they're often labeled as bossy? Steph and Beth tackle this double standard head-on, sharing their personal stories of overcoming the fear of negative labels and setting boundaries.
They explore the fine line between being assertive and being perceived as a bully, offering practical tips on how to navigate these tricky waters. So, if you're tired of not getting what you want because you're afraid to ask, this episode is for you. Tune in for an honest conversation that will leave you feeling empowered to speak your mind.
