Description

Have you ever felt that knot-in-your-stomach moment when staying silent isn’t working, but speaking up feels risky? In this episode, Jeannette gets practical about the conversations that shape our leadership: the ones with opposing opinions, strong emotions, and high stakes. Whether it’s a chronically late volunteer, decisions made without your input, or the quiet bias that sidelines women from opportunities, I’ll show you a better way forward.


Jeannette shares the one game-changing shift that improves every difficult conversation.  You’ll learn why this shift is not natural for your brain and why it takes intention. 


You’ll learn:



  • How to spot when a conversation turns “difficult” and what to do in the moment


  • The mindset swap that lowers defensiveness and invites collaboration


  • Phrases to start (or shift) a difficult conversation.





The road of leadership is paved with difficult conversations. So if you’re ready to speak up and  grow your impact.This episode is for you.
