Are You a Warner or a Welcomer? Choices and consequences

Welcome back to Consider Yourself Hugged! Click here to listen to Episode 121. OR click YouTube below to watch! (***Disclaimer: I provide these notes as a skeleton for the show - nothing fancy 😄)

Walking through my neighborhood is interesting. We live in a new construction area with houses very close together. It’s an active, young area with an ACTIVE Facebook group (living in the age of social media!)

I walk the dogs every day, so I notice things. I am a responsible pet owner who ALWAYS cleans up after the pets and realize not everyone does. So I totally get putting a sign in your yard to encourage cleaning up after your fur babies (Click to here the rest of the story).

Remember, this is just an analogy, not a judgement on your yard signs 😁

Which are you:

A Warner: Not welcoming into your sphere

A Well-Rounder: Welcoming, but with boundaries

A Welcomer: Always welcoming

Two Helpful Articles

  1. Great descriptions of three communication styles

  2. GREAT article from the Mayo Clinic on tips and benefits of being a better communicator
