Let’s talk about something sneaky that’s holding you back—your language. In this episode, Jonathan Dugger and I unpacked how the words we casually toss around can quietly chip away at our confidence and authority (yes, even those of us who coach and lead!).
From saying “actually” when we didn’t need to, to apologizing just for having a perspective, we got real about the ways we unintentionally play small—and how to flip the script.
📝 Top 3 Takeaways from the Episode:
Your words shape your confidence: Language isn’t just communication—it’s identity. When you use qualifiers, you signal doubt (to yourself and others).
Mindfulness matters: Being intentional with your language helps you show up more clearly, authentically, and powerfully in every conversation.
Self-compassion is non-negotiable: We all slip into old patterns—notice it, name it, and choose differently. Growth starts with grace.
This episode is a must-listen if you’ve ever said “just” or “honestly” and wondered why your message didn’t land the way you hoped. It’s time to speak like the leader you actually are. (See what I did there?)
