Manage episode 488305994 series 3436093
Ever left a conversation wishing you’d said what you really meant?
This week, we’ll show you a simple practice to help you notice - and close - the gap between your true thoughts and your spoken words, so you can build trust through greater sincerity.
In this episode of Practicing Connection, Jessica and Coral dive into one of the four key distinctions of trust: sincerity. Inspired by their recent conversation with trust experts Charles Feltman and Ila Edgar, Coral introduces a reflective practice called “What I Thought vs. What I Said.”
This simple, powerful exercise helps you become more aware of the differences between your internal experience and your external communication.
You’ll learn step-by-step how to use this practice after any conversation to uncover where you might be holding back, why that happens, and how you can bring more of your authentic self to your next interaction.
Whether you tend to avoid conflict, people-please, or just want to strengthen your relationships, this episode offers practical guidance for building trust - one sincere conversation at a time.
