Always Saying the Wrong Thing? Your Communication Style Might Be Why
Hey doll! Have you ever walked away from a conversation thinking why did I say it like that? Or maybe someone took what you said completely wrong — and now there's awkwardness or drama you didn't even start. Ya girl has been there, and I'm here to tell you: it's not always what you're saying. A lot of the time, it's how you're saying it — and you might not even realize there's a pattern.
In this episode, we're breaking down the four communication styles and helping you figure out which one you're defaulting to — and more importantly, how to start shifting toward the one that actually gets you heard, keeps your friendships healthy, and helps you stop replaying every conversation before you fall asleep.
What You'll Learn in This Episode:
The four communication styles and what they actually look like in real life
Why the "just stay quiet" approach is still a communication style — and what it's costing you
How anxiety shows up in the way you communicate (and why it makes total sense)
What it looks like to say what you mean without starting a war
Why your communication style might be different with your friends than with your family
A simple, practical homework challenge to help you practice this week
The way you communicate is a skill — not a personality trait. That means it can change. And when it does, so do your friendships.
