Speak Your Truth with Kareen Walsh
This week on "Do the Damn Thing!", I talked to Kareen Walsh, author of Be a Badass: 6 Tools to Level Up Your Life. Kareen is a growth strategist, leadership and executive coach, advisor, and entrepreneur. She is a first-generation American who thrives in environments that require complex solutions that bring people, process, and technology together. Running her own badass coaching and consulting practice has equipped Kareen with the tools and methods to assist people looking to up-level their life, business, and fulfillment factor in all that they do. And she’s on the show sharing all of her awesome insights!
During this episode, we talk about when to have hard conversations, how to show up during difficult moments, and how to stay true to yourself when things get tense or emotional. Not only does Kareen provide insight into why it’s so hard to speak up in difficult moments, but also how to reverse this cycle and start showing up.
Takeaways from my discussion with Kareen
During our conversation, Kareen shares great tips for speaking your truth and responding in a conscious manner during difficult discussions in both our personal and professional lives. She also drives home the point that everyone has a say; “you always have a stance in the world you choose to show up in.”
If you’ve got a hard conversation ahead of you, Kareen provides a few actionable tips, like “flipping the script.” Instead of thinking about how hard the situation is, or how awkward the conversation will be, think about how easy it can be. She also has a simple tip that can help buy you time and manage your reactions when you’re put on the spot or when a difficult conversation triggers you.
But my favorite takeaway is Kareen’s message: You can share your truth even in difficult situations. Don’t miss what Kareen has to say!
