In the Right Direction with Deb Elbaum

71: The One Phrase to Use Sparingly


Listen Later

How we show up is in our control – this includes our words, tone, and body language. When we use the phrase "I don't know" too much, it conveys an energy of not caring or not having an opinion. This keeps us stuck, and it can be frustrating for others.

The truth is that there are always things we do know. When we choose a different answer instead of saying "I don't know," it can help us be more clear, precise, and intentional.

In this episode, Leadership Coach Deb Elbaum brings awareness to this commonly used phrase and talks through how to reframe it for yourself, as well as how to handle it when you hear it from others. If you're ready for more confidence and clarity – even when you might not know – press the play button now.
