People should not avoid necessary conversations because they fear others' negative reactions or emotional responses.

“And you may have good reasons for avoiding conversations that feel like a confrontation. But here's what you're going to learn. Yes, yes, yes, you may want everyone to like you, but in life, it is so much more important to be respected.”

It is difficult for people to advocate for themselves because they have long been conditioned to prioritize others and may no longer know their own opinions or needs.

“advocating for a needs is tough if you've subjugated them for so long that you have no idea what they are anymore”

Jillian emphasizes that speaking one's truth and advocating for oneself is essential for the health of any relationship.

“You're going to see how something very specific happened in their relationship that I believe led to their rupture. And this is why hard conversations and speaking up for ourselves is so important.”
