Every time you speak, you're shaping how people receive what you say. And most of the time, you're doing it without realizing it.

It sounds like this: I'm not as technical as everyone here, but... or this may not be helpful, but... It feels polite. It feels humble. But what it's actually doing is telling people exactly how much weight to give your ideas before they've even heard them.

In this episode, I'll cover:

  • Why the phrases that feel humble or polite are actually costing you credibility
  • How to replace the disclaimers without sounding arrogant or overconfident
  • What shifts when you start framing yourself the way you want to be seen
