💡 Stop Over-Explaining, Start Inviting — The Art of Clear Communication

Let us know what you enjoy about the show!

We explore how the desire to connect can transform into over-explaining and dilute our message when we're driven by the need to be understood, validated, and accepted.

• The coach identifies a pattern of tangential explanations stemming from worry about listeners' perceptions
• Client recognizes her habit of constantly explaining rather than trusting her message
• Creating intentional pauses allows the message to land with listeners
• Frustration from listeners often comes from caring about the message, not disliking the speaker
• Too many details can overwhelm listeners like eating too fast
• Finding and operating from your "why" attracts the right audience
• When you trust your message, you don't need to over-explain
