We've all been there: you're put on the spot, emotions are high, or the stakes feel big—and suddenly your mind goes blank.

In this episode, What to Say When You Don't Know What to Say, we unpack why these moments happen (hint: it's not a lack of intelligence or preparation) and what actually helps when words disappear.

You'll learn simple, human strategies for responding in real time—whether you're in a meeting, on stage, in a difficult conversation, or navigating an unexpected question. This isn't about having the perfect script. It's about staying present, grounded, and connected so you can respond with clarity and authenticity—even under pressure.

In this episode, we explore:

• Why your mind goes blank in high-stakes moments
• What to say when you need time to think without losing credibility
• How to respond when emotions are present—yours or someone else's
• Practical phrases that create space, clarity, and confidence

This episode is for anyone who wants to trust themselves in the moment—and know they can handle whatever comes next.
