26 - The Unexpected Power of Saying Less


Listen Later

Listen to these powerful client stories of how intentionally saying less has made all the difference in parenting, in leadership, and in difficult conversations about boundaries and priorities. We live in a busy and noisy world, especially as parents, with little time to pause and embrace the silence. But when we do, we can hear so much more. We can hear what our kids really need. We can hear what's actually the problem at work. And we can hear our own thoughts about what is actually important. After you finish this episode, I challenge you to practice pausing, embracing the silence, and saying yes and tell me that you don't feel a difference in how you connect to those around you and to yourself as a working mom.

Key Takeaways:

  • 01:15 The power of silence in parenting and work

  • 02:56 Client Story: saying less in career negotiations

  • 09:20 Client Story: saying less as a manager

  • 11:30 Personal Story: saying less as a parent
