On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss: Your aunt wants to sell the run-down family business because she's sick of running it, but you'd like to buy her out and turn it into something really profitable. How can you approach the deal without coming off as insulting? Your monster of a mother-in-law says hurtful things to you about your husband when he leaves the room, and now insists on telling you how you'll be raising the child you're expecting soon. How can you shut down her rude commentary without causing a scene? Your mother recently rejoined a religion that requires cult-like obedience, and her views on medical care are drastically different from yours. Aside from general concern that she's thrown her lot in with a bad crowd, how do you break it to her that you no longer want to have her as your power of attorney? Since the sudden death of a close friend, your husband seems to be extra reliant on you for emotional support to the point that it's stifling your career ambitions. How can you bring up concerns without hurting his feelings and making him think you're trying to abandon him? You're a mechanical engineer with a goal of launching a startup focused around a specific sector of small-scale robotic automation. Your problem? You're not sure where to begin. Is it a realistic goal? Are you aiming too high? Or are your fears just holding you back? You're taking our free Six-Minute Networking course, but you've always been highly introverted and never built much of a network to revive. What tips do we have for starting a new network from the ground up? Life Pro Tip: When you rent or lease a car, take a photo of the dash and the mileage, and a video walking around the car.
