Hope Hughes, JD, MCPC on LinkedIn: #stress #work #EmotionalIntelligence https://tenor.com/XZiN.gif One of the most liberating experiences I’ve had is to learn to say “no” not only to others who do not have my best interests...

For most of us, there’s usually some good with the bad. Even when I worked at the toxic boutique law firm (that I wrote about in my last post), there was a partner there who was very supportive and appreciative of my work.

Still, because of the other partner’s behavior, my mental, emotional, and physical well-being suffered. I resolved to never again work in a toxic environment like that, and I never have. In fact, I went to work with a group of people who treat others with respect. My boss also complimented me so much on my work that I felt embarrassed at times. 😊

When I was in the middle of the storm at the toxic firm, I could not see past the rain, clouds, and darkness. There came a day, however, when I was out of that storm. Now, I am living out a dream from childhood—that of using psychological training to help others develop the skills to handle any storm and come out on the other side better than ever. The key to my success was a shift in my mindset—realizing that I deserve better. That shift led me to boldly take the steps necessary to make my dreams come true.

Know that you can live the life you desire and, if you are in a storm currently, it does have an expiration date.

Thanks for your time and be well!
