From Tongue-Tied to Finding Your Voice

I know how hard it can be to find the right words, especially when you're caught off guard or feeling overwhelmed. For as long as I can remember, being put on the spot has been one of my biggest challenges—I often found myself tongue-tied, wishing I could rewind and say what I meant to say.

Here in the Know What to Say section, you’ll find personal insights, practical advice, and encouragement to help you feel prepared for all kinds of conversations—whether they're with a doctor, a friend, or even yourself.

That’s why I wrote IDK What to Say: A Guide for Navigating Social Situations. What started as simple scripts and tips for tackling life’s everyday transactions—like making phone calls, scheduling appointments, and handling banking—has grown into so much more. Now, it’s about building the confidence to navigate the moments that really matter: setting boundaries, declining invitations when your social battery is drained, or simply connecting with others in an authentic way.
