About this episode

What happens when your sister is also your best friend and business partner? In this episode, I sit down with Erin and Sara Foster, better known as The Foster Sisters, for an honest conversation about family dynamics, sibling arguments, people-pleasing, and what it really means to speak your mind. We talk about why the people closest to us can hurt us the most, how to be direct without being disrespectful, and why so many people struggle to say no without feeling guilty. We also get into the challenges women face when speaking with authority, the communication habits that quietly create conflict, and the difference between being liked and being respected. Plus, I put Sara on the spot about two little words that might be making her conversations harder than they need to be. If you've ever struggled to stand up for yourself, communicate with family, or worry too much about what other people think, this conversation is for you.
