Stop Over-Apologizing and Increase Your Confidence


Listen Later

Have you ever found yourself uttering the words 'I'm sorry' more than necessary?

In this podcast episode, Laurie makes a confession about being a recovering over-apologizer. She also delves into the habit of over-apologizing which many women, including herself, often fall victim to.

She share's how this trend can be traced back generations,  is also linked to societal conditioning, and how it came to my realization in a therapy session.

Laurie offers solutions to those who over-apologize so you can break free from overusing the words, 'I'm sorry' through awareness, using alternative phrases, and practice which can lead to more assertive and confident communication styles.

She also introduces a Gmail plug-in or extension called 'Just Not Sorry', that helps detect undermining language in your emails.  Click here to check it out.

Pop those earbuds in and listen up so you can stop being an over-apologizer and start developing a more confident communication style within your personal relationships and at work.
