  • The One Conversation at Work You're Afraid to Have — And How to Finally Do It Right
    Nov 20 2025

    Most people don't struggle with speaking up in general.
    They struggle with one specific conversation that feels risky — a conversation with career, relationship, or emotional consequences.

    Whether it's a performance review, a promotion request, a conflict, a micromanaging boss, a workload pushback, a boundary conversation, or a situation where you feel overlooked or disrespected… avoiding the conversation always feels safe in the moment, but it silently costs you confidence, influence, visibility, and self-respect.

    In this episode, you'll discover:

    • Why certain conversations feel so intimidating
    • What's really driving the fear of conflict, backlash, or judgment
    • The hidden psychological and career consequences of staying silent
    • What changes when you approach these conversations strategically rather than reactively
    • How to communicate with clarity, respect, and strength — without aggression or over-explaining

    If you've been overthinking a conversation at work or losing sleep about what to say, this episode will give you the roadmap to finally move forward.
