Points to remember…
No matter what you do to resolve a situation with a chronically difficult person, you may never please them.

🤕 Hurting people hurt others.

Some people are miserable and misery loves company. Don’t accept the invitation.

Life lessons…key takeaways
🗯️ Stop worrying what other people think. You will never please everyone.
It is often not about you. It is about what is going on with THEM.

Know your triggers. Often the folks closest to you know all the right buttons to press! Know your triggers so you can plan ahead. React proactively not reactively.

‍ Your worst role models will serve as your greatest teachers.
