How To Advocate For Yourself In Difficult Relationships
Why is it so easy to stand up for others but so hard to advocate for ourselves?

I’m joined by Heather Hansen—former trial lawyer turned advocate coach—who shares powerful insights on breaking free from “good girl syndrome,” building the skills to confidently speak up, and learning how to own your voice without fear or guilt. If advocating for yourself feels uncomfortable, overwhelming, or just plain impossible, this conversation will empower you to step into your confidence and ask for what you truly deserve.
