Being Me Sacrifice

When a client is in this mindset, she thinks she must sacrifice herself for the needs and wellbeing of others and that others are negatively affected by what she thinks, needs and wants to do. There are still lots of societal pressures for women to be and act a certain way even today in 2016.  When women do other than what is expected within friend, family, community, or work norms, there can be negative and judgmental reactions from others.  Some women believe that if they say what they think, it makes others annoyed or they may react and attack.  Women who assert themselves are often labeled:  bossy, selfish, mean, bad mothers, bad wives and girlfriends, and worse.

Being Me Collaborate

A woman can create a major shift in the landscape by cultivating a Collaborate mindset. When a client achieves this new way of thinking, she believes that being her true self creates opportunities for collaboration with others and that they can be positively affected by what she thinks, needs and wants to do.  It’s not about putting herself first but about insisting that her well being be part of the conversation.
