Shore up your boundaries and affirm your commitments with your loves, friends, clients, and/or business partners. And do so with emotional transparency. It can seem risky to reveal deep truths to others, but it’s essential for co-creating genuine trust. Infuse your words with a spoonful of sugar, if need be, to help your honesty go down. Expressing yourself from an empathetic place will allow you and your companions to feel fully witnessed and honored.
