Episode 101
Stop hiding behind the veil of “straightforward communication”
In this episode of S*%! People Say, we talk about the real impact and meaning behind our words. Words can do far more harm than we realize, and it’s on us to take responsibility for our delivery and strive to communicate better.
People act like the words they choose don’t mean a lot. They hide behind excuses like, “I’m just blunt.” This is an easy way to avoid not having to work on improving communication, or not digging deeper into how we relate to others.
At the end of the episode, I share my personal philosophy on how I seek to improve interpersonal communication in my relationships. Remember: your words matter, how you select them matters and how you use them matters.
