Difficult people are part of business and life, but they do not have to drain your energy or derail your goals. In this Bookclub episode, we unpack insights from Difficult People by Rebecca Ray and translate them into practical leadership strategies for women business owners. You will learn how understanding archetypes and predictable tactics helps you read behaviour quickly and respond with clarity rather than reactivity. Instead of trying to communicate someone into better behaviour, we explore how to lead with boundaries, self-responsibility and nervous system regulation. We look at how unprocessed patterns from childhood can get activated in client dynamics and how simple scripts protect your time, attention and integrity. This is values-led leadership that keeps you grounded while you hold standards for your work, your team and your clients. If you are ready to communicate cleanly, reduce emotional labour and create calm strength in your business, this discussion will give you language, frameworks and practical steps you can use this week.
Tune in to hear: How knowing the archetypes and tactics of difficult people improves your leadership and client management. Why trying to convince others to behave better keeps you stuck, and what to do instead. Ready to use scripts and boundaries that reduce conflict and conserve your energy.
