Preview โ€” The Goal

๐Ÿง  The Goal: Scripts and boundaries handle the difficult person in front of you โ€” but the heaviest damage usually happens in your own head: the 2 a.m. replay of what they said, the pre-dread before every interaction, the slow suspicion that maybe YOU'RE the problem. This final pack is the internal toolkit โ€” five mindset shifts that don't change the difficult person at all (nothing changes them; that's shift #1) but change what they cost you. Because the real win against a difficult person was never the perfect comeback. It's them taking up almost no space in your head on a Tuesday evening.
