Assertive, Not Aggressive: The Right Way to Be Heard Without Being Hated

Is your fear of being seen as "too much" keeping you silent? Kwame Christian sits down with assertive communication expert Ivna Curi to dismantle one of the most damaging myths in leadership and workplace culture — that speaking up means being aggressive. You’ll learn the four pillars of true assertiveness, how to balance confidence with warmth, and why staying silent often creates more backlash than setting boundaries ever could. From high-stakes roleplays to actionable scripts, this conversation is packed with tools to help you communicate clearly, respectfully, and powerfully — without becoming the villain in the room. If you’ve ever held back for fear of being misunderstood, this episode is your guide to showing up fully and being heard.
