How To Deal With Difficult People

The No Nonsense Wellness Podcast | Weight Loss & Health for Real Life - without diets, emotional eating, or BS

Not Today "Karen" . . . I really DO feel bad for anyone named Karen, I'm so sorry your name is now synonymous with a difficult person. But when I say "Karen" you know exactly the type of difficult person I'm talking about! Difficult people come in many forms, sometimes they're difficult all the time, sometimes they're just difficult at certain times or certain conversations. Dealing with difficult people, both in person and on line, is a HUGE source of stress for us; and you know that increased stress is going to totally hamper your health, wellness, and weight loss progress. Difficult people might be family, friends, co-workers, online etc. and they might show up like: - blaming others and not taking responsibility for their part in a situation - often complain more than praise, negative - may be angry, argumentative, aggressive, or passive aggressive - self-centered, always think they're right, don't listen to other ideas, talk down to people - and tons of other ways! There ARE very effective ways you can learn to deal with difficult people, but it will take you some practice. The 5 strategies I'll outline in this episode will be SUPER effective and you can start practicing them right now with any of the difficult people in your life. But always remember - you can't change anyone, you are only in control of YOUR thoughts, emotions, actions, and reactions. You are always in control of how much you let difficult people affect you. ​ XOXO Tara PS. the Healthy Mind, Healthy Body Program is OPEN!

Ditch the Diets and Finally Make Peace with Food If you struggle with yo-yo dieting then you know how hard it is to make any real lasting change. Unfortunately most women get stuck in the belief that being on a diet is the only way to lose weight and get healthy, and when they inevitably fail they’ve destroyed their self esteem, destroyed their relationship with food, and get stuck in a guilt/shame spiral that starts the whole process over again. If you don’t understand how reprogram your mind that is sabotaging you, and reprogram your body for health, you’ll never make lasting progress.
