@LostAngel, I absolutely agree!

 

@ArtistZ I resonate so much with many of your points, thanks for sharing. Written communication can be really tricky for me too, which I don't find surprising given studies have shown us more than 70 percent of all communication is nonverbal! Without facial expressions and tone, friendliness and compassion can definitely be hard to convey, so emojis can help so much with half of those missing cues. We will be discussing this further tomorrow Smiley Very Happy

 

@pinklollipop15 thanks for sharing! I have struggled a lot with assertive communication as well, and can relate to bottling up feelings and frustrations for the benefit of other people's feelings. It doesn't leave me feeling great after conversations though so working on being more assertive has helped me and my wellbeing greatly Smiley Happy
