Your words have such a profound impact on people, whether or not you choose to realize it, and so I'm going to continue to work on removing butt from my vocabulary in my conversations with friends and family, but you bet I will be using it for arguments when it's necessary.
Ever catch yourself saying 'I love you, but...' or 'I'm proud of you, but...'? In this episode of 'Sweat & Reflect', Meredith Coviello dives into the subtle yet powerful impact of the word 'but' on our relationships. Drawing from her own experiences, Meredith explores how this tiny word can shift a conversation from supportive to critical in an instant. She recounts moments when well-meaning comments turned sour, simply because of that three-letter word.
You'll hear her reflect on how often 'but' has been used to dampen her enthusiasm or question her choices, even when the intent was to show concern. Meredith doesn't just point out the problem; she offers practical advice on how to communicate more mindfully. She encourages listeners to replace 'but' with more positive language that fosters understanding and support. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to improve their communication skills and build stronger, more positive relationships.
Tune in and discover how changing one small word can make a big difference.
