Starting conversations can be super awkward, whether with a stranger or in an attempt to broach a difficult conversation with a loved one.

Today I’m joined by Tucker Miller, executive coach and author of “The First Four Words” and we’re dicing into why we avoid tough conversations, how to use her “four word” approach to create connection and trust at work and and time.

If you’ve ever felt like you can’t get through a conversation (or start one) without putting your foot in your mouth, you’ll want to tune in.

Tucker Miller is an executive coach, speaker, and author with over 35 years of experience in law, human resources, and senior leadership. Known for her book The First Four Words, Tucker helps people transform conversations to drive connection, trust and impact. Learn more at OnwardLeadership.com JTuckerMiller.com.
