Be Assertive and Say No

Assertiveness sits between staying quiet and pushing too hard. Here you can practise stating your needs calmly and clearly.

  • 1:1 with an AI coach
  • Practical, not clinical
  • Your pace

What you could work on

Rehearse real requests and refusals, try simple frameworks for saying what you need, and plan for common pushback.

Skills you’ll practise

  • Structuring a message
  • Open questions
  • Reflective listening
  • Calm, clear phrasing
  • Rehearsing real conversations

A good fit if…

  • You have a real conversation or message coming up
  • You want to practise what to say before you say it
  • You’d like feedback on wording and tone

Questions you might bring

Pick the one that feels closest — we’ll carry it into your first session.
