Listen "Get to the Point in your Conversations"
Episode Synopsis
🎙 Straightway Through with Gina — Helping you speak with clarity, courage, and connection.
Episode 5: Get to the Point in your Conversations
Episode Summary:
When you speak with a natural problem-solver, they instinctively look for the point of your communication so they can identify the issue and offer a solution. This approach is incredibly helpful when you’re seeking answers—but if what you truly need is to be heard without being “fixed,” it can feel invalidating. In this episode, we explore how to communicate with kindness around this dynamic, whether you’re the problem-solver or the one being heard.
