Reply To: How I negotiate as a woman and get what I ask for?

Absolutely beautiful. I deeply resonate with this, especially the idea of negotiation as presence, not power. Like you I’ve found that grounding in my values and honouring my limits has helped me lead and listen more intentionally. Saying no with clarity and compassion has been difficult for me, with practice, I am finding that everyone wins and there is something special that happens when you say no with compassion; people tend to resonate with that more and it becomes a win-win situation.
