Summary

Assumptions block our view of seeing the whole perspective and equip us with a bias that can make our relationships difficult to navigate. Not asking people personal questions or receiving feedback might be underlined unexamined bias. Whether your "moral compass" may get in the way, your assumptions form from cultural influence, or you even feel avoidant of those tougher conversations and just assume the other person is on the same page - this episode is for you. This is a follow up to the defense series as Ann and Sue help us continue to get real and question what we think we just know.

I'm not going to be vulnerable. I'm not going to say I'm sorry, I'm never giving anything up

0:15.8

because I will feel I'm going to lose power. Then you really are in a power over position,

0:21.4

you're maintaining that. So you do have to lose that power over to come equal. And that's the concept

0:27.2

of what empowered is. The empowered means you're inside yourself. And in empowerment,

0:32.9

you're so much more connected. So you're not actually going under the person. You're going equal

0:37.2

to the person. That's the assumption that we're besting. When you give up being in power,

0:43.4

you don't go under. You go more even. And that's the beauty. So let go of that assumption.

we are going to just cover some nitty gritty kind of concrete easy stuff.

1:23.1

It's easy problematic stuff. Let's talk about the assumptions. We all make different assumptions

1:28.9

based on our own projections of what we feel on other people. And let's talk about assumptions

1:35.3

that can just kick us in the butt that we don't even know are doing that because they're just our

1:39.6

assumptions, right? Right. So first one that I was thinking about, have you ever not asked somebody

1:46.8

something because you think, well, if they want to me to know, they would tell me. Yes.

1:52.7

Yeah. If they wanted to talk about it, they would. Or I don't want to make them uncomfortable
