  38. 1:34me ask you this have you ever had
  39. 1:37someone cut you off mids sentence maybe
  40. 1:39at work or in a group conversation how
  41. 1:41did that feel like nails on a chalkboard
  42. 1:45it's even worse when it happens
  43. 1:46repeatedly and you're sitting there
  44. 1:48thinking do I even exist in this meeting
  45. 1:51totally it reminds me of a time during
  46. 1:54University I was in a group discussion
  47. 1:56and one guy just kept talking over
  48. 1:58everyone I was so frustrated but instead
  49. 2:01of speaking up I just stopped
  50. 2:04contributing it felt awful I've been
  51. 2:07there too it's like do I let it slide or
  52. 2:10do I say something and figuring out how
  53. 2:12to respond without escalating things
  54. 2:14that's the tricky part right exactly so
  55. 2:17let us discuss what disrespect is and
  56. 2:20where it can come from disrespect can
  57. 2:22show up in so many ways it could be
  58. 2:25hurtful words dismissive Behavior or
  59. 2:27even unfair treatment what do you think
  60. 2:30Daniel spot on Aaron disrespect doesn't
  61. 2:33always look obvious sometimes it's loud
  62. 2:35like someone shouting at you other times
  63. 2:38it's subtle like someone ignoring your
  64. 2:39ideas or cutting you off mid-sentence
  65. 2:41and here's the thing it can come from
  66. 2:44anyone a stranger on the street a
  67. 2:46coworker a friend or even a family
  68. 2:48member it can happen anywhere at work at
  69. 2:51home or in public that's what makes it
  70. 2:54so tough right it's not about avoiding
  71. 2:56disrespect completely that's
  72. 2:58impossible it's about how we handle it
  73. 3:00when it happens exactly and like the
  74. 3:03saying goes respect is a two-way street
  75. 3:07if you want to get it you've got to give
  76. 3:09it but sometimes people don't play by
  77. 3:11that rule true and when they don't we
  78. 3:14have to decide do we let it go or do we
  79. 3:17address it it depends on the situation
  80. 3:21absolutely so let's dive into some real
  81. 3:23life examples and strategies starting
  82. 3:26with
  83. 3:27strangers Daniel have you ever had a
  84. 3:30random stranger disrespect you oh plenty
  85. 3:32of times once I was in line for coffee
  86. 3:35and someone just cut in front of me like
  87. 3:37I wasn't even there it caught me off
  88. 3:39guard and I froze G that's so
  89. 3:42frustrating you're standing there
  90. 3:44minding your business and boom they just
  91. 3:46break the unspoken rules of basic
  92. 3:48respect exactly I felt the anger
  93. 3:51bubbling up but I reminded myself don't
  94. 3:53react In the Heat of the Moment so I
  95. 3:56took a deep breath and calmly said
  96. 3:58excuse me I believe I was next they
  97. 4:01looked embarrassed and moved back smart
  98. 4:04move staying calm is key when you lose
  99. 4:07your cool you give them control over
  100. 4:09your emotions deep breaths can do
  101. 4:12wonders and sometimes it's worth asking
  102. 4:15why are they acting this way maybe
  103. 4:17they're having a bad day or they're in a
  104. 4:19rush empathy helps you let go of that
  105. 4:21initial anger like Michelle Obama said
  106. 4:25when they go low we go high responding
  107. 4:29with Grace doesn't mean letting them
  108. 4:30walk over you it means protecting your
  109. 4:33peace exactly and here's a quick tip for
  110. 4:36our listeners practice saying polite but
  111. 4:38firm responses like excuse me can you
  112. 4:41wait your turn it's a simple way to
  113. 4:43handle these situations without
  114. 4:45escalating now let's talk about
  115. 4:47something tougher disrespect from people
  116. 4:49close to us Daniel what's your take on
  117. 4:52this It's Tricky Aaron when it's someone
  118. 4:55you care about it hits deeper I had a
  119. 4:58friend who used to dismiss my ideas as
  120. 5:00too simple whenever we worked on
  121. 5:02projects it made me doubt myself that's
  122. 5:05rough what did you do at first I stayed
  123. 5:08quiet but it kept happening so I finally
  124. 5:11said hey I feel dismissed when you say
  125. 5:13that can we discuss ideas without
  126. 5:15putting each other down they were
  127. 5:17surprised but appreciated the honesty
  128. 5:19that's a great example of being
  129. 5:21assertive it's not about attacking the
  130. 5:23person it's about expressing how their
  131. 5:25behavior affects you that's how
  132. 5:27boundaries are built EX exactly and if
  133. 5:30the behavior doesn't change it's okay to
  134. 5:33re-evaluate the relationship like
  135. 5:35confucious said respect yourself and
  136. 5:37others will respect you well said
  137. 5:40remember listeners you deserve respect
  138. 5:42in all your relationships speak up when
  139. 5:44needed and don't be afraid to set limits
  140. 5:48lastly let's talk about the
  141. 5:50workplace disrespect here can be
  142. 5:52complicated because you want to stay
  143. 5:54professional what's your experience
  144. 5:57Daniel plenty of stories but here's one
  145. 6:00that stands out I once had a colleague
  146. 6:03present my idea in a meeting like it was
  147. 6:05theirs I was shocked that's so
  148. 6:09infuriating what did you do after the
  149. 6:12meeting I spoke to them privately I said
  150. 6:15I noticed you mentioned my idea in the
  151. 6:17meeting I'd appreciate it if we could
  152. 6:19present it together next time they
  153. 6:21apologized and didn't do it again that's
  154. 6:24the perfect way to handle it calm clear
  155. 6:26and professional calling someone out in
  156. 6:29front of others can escalate the
  157. 6:31situation exactly and if the behavior
  158. 6:33continues document everything it helps
  159. 6:36if you need to involve a manager or HR
  160. 6:39great tip as Bruce Lee said knowledge
  161. 6:42will give you power but character
  162. 6:44respect in the workplace showing respect
  163. 6:48even when it's not given sets a powerful
  164. 6:51example so Aaron we've covered strangers
  165. 6:54personal relationships and the workplace
  166. 6:57but what about General tips how can we
  167. 6:59handle disrespect in any situation great
  168. 7:02question Daniel let's break it down step
  169. 7:05by step all right let's start with the
  170. 7:07first and most important tip stay calm
  171. 7:10it's easier said than done right Daniel
  172. 7:13totally but staying calm gives you
  173. 7:16control when someone disrespects you
  174. 7:18your first reaction might be to snap
  175. 7:20back but that only adds fuel to the fire
  176. 7:24exactly taking deep breaths or counting
  177. 7:26to 10 can help you pause before reacting
  178. 7:29it's simple but powerful and let's not
  179. 7:33forget silence can be
  180. 7:35golden sometimes not reacting at all
  181. 7:37sends the strongest message
  182. 7:40absolutely tip two choose your battles
  183. 7:44not every situation deserves your energy
  184. 7:47that's so true for example if it's a
  185. 7:49stranger being rude it might be better
  186. 7:51to just let it go save your energy for
  187. 7:54what really matters exactly now tip
  188. 7:58three be assertive not aggressive if you
  189. 8:02do decide to address the disrespect
  190. 8:04speak with confidence but keep your tone
  191. 8:06calm here's a great phrase to use I felt
  192. 8:09disrespected when you said that can we
  193. 8:12talk about it it's direct but doesn't
  194. 8:14escalate the situation perfect and
  195. 8:18finally tip four lead by example show
  196. 8:23respect even when you don't receive it
  197. 8:26it's hard but it speaks volumes about
  198. 8:28your character
  199. 8:30like someone wisely said treat others
  200. 8:32with respect not because they deserve it
  201. 8:34but because you do that's a GameChanger
