It's a skill many discover after childbirth while standing up for their child, but often forget to apply to themselves. Whether you're a parent, professional, or student, learning to be assertive at any stage of life boosts confidence, strengthens relationships, and protects mental health. Start small, speak with intention, and remember: your voice matters.
