6-Steps to Confidently Communicate for Meaningful, Respectful Relationships

I used to say that I had a lock on my throat chakra. At the time, that was the best way I could explain it. Now, I have realized that my deep seeded fear of expressing my true feelings and desires came from a very specific traumatic event when I was 4 years old.

I was 9 months into my sobriety journey when a repressed memory came back to me (at 39 years old). I remembered how when I was 4 years old, as I began to sob in grief over the death of my baby sister, my father sternly scolded, "Stop crying! Stop crying right now!" It was that moment that led to me knowing without a doubt that I was NOT SAFE to express myself freely. 

And guess how that translated into my relationships? Yep, not so good. With the lack of feeling safe to express myself, I went from bad relationship to bad relationship. Not quite sure wtf I was doing wrong. 

Learning Dialectical Behavior Therapy (or DBT) skills was the game changer! How the heck are we supposed to know how to express ourselves in an effective way when all we were shown was dysfunctional dynamics?

Welp, this has been so incredibly powerful in changing the trajectory of my life, that I am now extremely passionate about sharing these skills with you. 

I originally learned DBT from Family Connections of NEABPD. Having a mother who struggles with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), I found myself desperate to understand wtf was happening.

So, my dear friend, I'm sharing this knowledge with you. For FREE. I will admit, I am new to online education. I will also admit that my video is good quality, but not super great. But I will promise you this, if you watch these video's, you will begin to have a very real way of handling challenging situations differently, communicating your needs in an effective way that also respects the other person and you will begin to develop real confidence as you practice these tools and experience for yourself just how life-changing they can be. 

Here’s what you’ll get:

• 4 concise and actionable videos (about 70 minutes total) guiding you through these life-changing techniques.
• Practical tools you can use anytime, whether you’re navigating stress on your own or working with professional support.
• Free access—because I believe every woman deserves a chance to heal and thrive.

I created this workshop because I know the path to healing isn’t easy, but with the right tools, you can reclaim your confidence and build a life of stability and peace. You don’t have to do this alone.

Join me in the 6-Steps to Confidently Communicate Workshop and take your first step toward emotional freedom and deeper connection.

Let’s get started—together.

Warmly,
Mandi Gardner
