Episode notes

In social situations where there is pressure to indulge, setting clear rules for oneself can help avoid unwanted behaviors. Communicating these rules confidently can help end pressure from others, as people tend not to argue with rules. Having rules can prevent succumbing to external pressures and help in maintaining desired behaviors, even in challenging situations.
