I Thought I Was Being Clear, So I Learned How to Communicate Better

play Play pause Pause
Your directness keeps landing wrong and you can't figure out why. 

In this solo episode of She Is A Leader Podcast, Yvonne Heimann breaks down how to communicate better when good intentions keep getting misread as attacks.

Three rooms. Three relationships. Same gap every time: what she meant and what the other person heard were two different things. 
From a restaurant kitchen where speaking German got mistaken for fighting, to a community dinner that nearly didn't happen, to a new friendship where helping landed as patronizing.

By the end, you'll know what to ask instead of assuming, and why using more words is sometimes the most efficient thing you can do.
