Hey, nobody asked you…
We asked Walker how to deal when people whose input we don’t want, just won’t stop giving it. She said, “The best way to handle unsolicited advice is to start the conversation with ‘Hey I really just want to vent, can you listen?’ And if they still give you unwanted advice, redirect them and say ‘I appreciate your concern but I really just wanted to vent, I don’t want advice at this time.’ Make it a habit to ask your loved ones if they have the capacity to listen to you vent or give you advice to prevent any misunderstandings.”
