Dr. Gina:
That was a great episode.

Cultural context can play a significant role. See the article by University of Iowa’s Cynthia Joyce about “the impact of direct and indirect communication”. I posted it here: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/impact-direct-indirect-communication-neil-lobron-ms-pmp

A friend of mine moved from Philadelphia to the Midwest and considers many there to be passive-aggressive relative to Philadelphians.

I learned so much, thank you! I think it will help me feel less anger towards all the passive-aggressive people in my life, and to be less fearful of such people who clearly lack in emotional intelligence. 😌🙏

Great insights, thank you all. love and blessings 💖 x
