Description

Assumptions are one of the fastest ways to erode trust and misread people’s intentions.


In this episode, Sandy Gerber shows you how to stop letting assumptions run the show and start leading with clarity.


You’ll learn the Assumption Auction to catch the stories your brain invents, the Assumption Antidote Question to reset in seconds, and three practical EQ tools:
• the EQ Switch™
• Honest Questions™
• Emotional Magnets™
to transform silence, tone, and uncertainty into real connection.


You’ll walk away with:
• A simple reset question to stop overthinking in its tracks
• Tools to turn “they didn’t reply” into clarity instead of conflict
• A quick team exercise to expose hidden assumptions and build trust
• A faster, calmer way to respond instead of react


If you want fewer misunderstandings and stronger connections at work and at home, this is your episode.
