#69 How to Handle Dominant People: 3 Ways to Stay in Control

About this episode

Ever walked into a meeting and instantly felt small?

You know the type - loud, assertive, always in control. Dominant people can make you question yourself, throw you off balance, and leave you walking away from conversations frustrated, unheard, or unsure of what just happened.

But what if you could flip the script?

In this episode, I’m giving you 3 powerful strategies to stay in control - without having to match their energy, fight for attention, or shrink yourself.

You’ll learn:

✅ The #1 mistake most people make when dealing with dominant personalities (and how to avoid it)

✅ How to keep your energy strong - even when they try to overpower you

✅ A simple shift that makes them respect you instead of steamrolling you

If you’ve ever struggled to hold your ground with strong personalities - whether it’s a boss, client, or colleague - this episode is a must-listen.

Hit play now and take back control of every conversation.

Thank you for tuning in.
