Join this virtual author talk with bestselling author Dr. Aziz Gazipura as he discusses his latest book, Not Nice: Stop People Pleasing, Staying Silent & Feeling Guilty…And Start Speaking Up, Saying No, Asking Boldly, And Unapologetically Being Yourself. The talk will be at 1:00 p.m. and is presented by the Palm Springs Public Library.

Are you too nice? Do you find it hard to be assertive and ask for what you want? Did you know millions of people struggle with being too nice? Being nice can make it hard to speak up, say “no,” or do something that might upset someone. Dr. Gazipura will showcase lessons from his book to teach participants that the opposite of nice is not mean, but rather real. You’ll learn how to say no when you want and need to, confidently ask for what you want and eliminate feelings of guilt and anxiety, as well as stop worrying about what others will think.
