I’ve had the chance, recently, to welcome more and more guests on the show that have been introduced to me by previous guests. It’s a nice problem to have. Rudolph-Episode-402.png?ssl=1"> Let me take this moment to give a shoutout to Honoree Corder, our guest from just last month in Episode #399. Thanks to Honoree, I get to introduce you to the wonderful book being featured in today’s episode. That book is called Power Up Power Down: How to Reclaim Control and Make Every Situation a Win-Win. Its author is Gail Rudolph, who can now call herself a Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestseller. Gail posits that, too often, power situations can feel like a “rock and a hard place” – if you’re too assertive, you’re labeled (at best) as overbearing and unapproachable. If you’re too passive, your voice, ideas, and opinions are ignored. But by recognizing the ways to value all people (including yourself), you can make a choice to become empowered!
