Toxic Conversations – To Block or Not to Block

The more we give into someone who's making us feel bad about ourselves, the worse the situation gets.

In this week’s video, I’m discussing the best practices for dealing with toxic conversations that happen on the phone and in texts. One part of being in a toxic relationship is the arguments and fights that often ensue. These arguments aren’t just face-to-face. They can span space and time and certainly technology.

Often an argument will continue on for hours, days, even longer. They can become a texting war, a war of arguing, bickering, fighting, verbally attacking one another, one person antagonizing the other person making the other feel as though they have to defend themselves and the list goes on. Often these texting and calling feuds can get all-encompassing, wrecking an entire day. If you’re at work and dealing with this you may feel overwhelmed, stressed out, and certainly not focused on your work.

In this video, I share why you should block someone and why you shouldn’t. I offer techniques on how to change the situation and train others to treat you differently. You deserve respect, and if you’re not getting it, you will want to watch this video. The more we give into someone who’s making us feel bad about ourselves, the worse the situation gets. It’s up to you to stand up for yourself and show them that you will not accept bad behavior from them one way or another.
