Our favorite definition of assertive is “educating others on how you want to be treated.” This is a vital skill for young women today – in friendship, in dating relationships, at work and in school. Watch this 1 minute video with Dr. Melissa J. Johnson, psychologist, CEO and founder of the Institute on how you can help the young women you know be assertive. You can also invite the young women in your life to attend Push Back: Creating and Maintaining Your Verbal and Physical Boundaries, July 16. Lauren Roselle, President of Esteem Communications, teaches this empowering workshop on verbal assertiveness, combined with some physical techniques for backing up assertive words when necessary. Great workshop for high school, college, and early career women. Hope to see you on July 16th, 6:00pm – 9:00pm
