Dr. Sunita Sah discusses her book, Defy: The Power of Saying No in a World That Demands Yes on episode 563 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.
Quotes from the episode
Defiance is a practice, not a personality.
Defiance is a skill that’s available and necessary for all of us to use.
For many of us, the distance between who we think we are and what we actually do is enormous.
To defy is simply to act in accordance with your true values when there’s pressure to do otherwise.
