Have you ever been in a situation with someone where they're angry but they don't use words? Instead, they roll their eyes, stomp around, maybe slam a door?

Or, you might be the one that's acting out in this way. Someone asks you if you're angry or upset (you are), and you say "no," but then you slam around the kitchen or loudly sigh (or mutter to yourself) your way through dinner prep.

If these scenarios resonate with you, I invite you to watch this week's video, because I'm going to teach you about how to gracefully shut down passive aggressive comments and behaviors (even if they are yours).

What is passive aggressive communication? Passive-aggressive communication, simply put, is indirect communication.

Basically, it’s you (or others in your life) trying to express a feeling without directly owning it, without saying it.

If this is you, it’s ok. Passive aggressive behavior is extremely common, and I’ve got tips to help you communicate more effectively so that you can express yourself authentically, get your needs met and dramatically improve the quality of your relationships and interactions.
