Quick Tips: Ask Permission to Flub It
Starting a conversation vulnerably can make the other person feel more in control and more likely to listen. Try these in your own words, and you’ll almost always receive a friendly listener in response.
“Would it be okay if I communicate something important to me, but my words might not be as eloquent as I like?”
“Hey I want to offer something but afraid I’ll flub how it comes out; can I just go for it?”
“Is it cool if I share something upsetting me, but know that I’m not as confident as you in my speaking skills?"
