What if you could handle workplace conflict without shutting down, blowing up, or backing away? Today we’re diving into a hidden crisis in the workplace: poor communication—a leading cause of corporate errors, costing companies hundreds of thousands each year. In this episode, renowned communication expert Cynthia Kane joins us to share insights from her new book, The Pause Principle, and how her SOFTEN method can help leaders and teams navigate high-stress conversations with clarity and respect. Cynthia opens up about her personal journey and how it shaped her approach to mindful communication—tools that can transform not only professional dynamics but also personal relationships. We explore how setting daily intentions, regulating our nervous system, and staying present can drastically reduce miscommunication and bring more peace to both boardrooms and dinner tables.
