How to Deal with Toxic People in Your Life
How do you reclaim your power and maintain your peace with toxic people?
Here's another She's on Fire Hot Minute!
In this episode, I share with you my strategy for dealing with the toxic people in your life. Now, this isn’t to say it's going to be easy or even painless but it’s a necessary step in the evolution of yourself. I, as I’m sure many others, have allowed people to walk all over me which is how I know how invalidating it can feel, but that’s all in the past. I’m here to show you how you can reclaim your power and find your peace!
Key Takeaways:
- Surround yourself with positive people. Surrounding yourself with negative people will have a negative impact on your life. This is true on either side of the spectrum; positive influences = positive impact
- Resist the urge of wanting to get the last word in an argument. There’s power in learning to let it go, walk away, and hold your peace
- Recognize that the only power you have is the power to change yourself. You are the only person who has control over what you think and how you feel about yourself. Everyone else’s opinion has no significance and it’s okay to accept that you cannot change their mindset
- Don’t allow others to feel like they’ve hurt you
