52. How to Handle Being Interrupted
Description
Picture this: You're presenting a critical point in a meeting when suddenly a colleague jumps in, taking over your sentence like you were never speaking at all. That split-second moment defines your leadership presence more than you might realize.
The truth is, getting interrupted mid-sentence happens to women in corporate settings all the time, but how you respond in that moment determines whether the room sees you as someone whose voice is negotiable or as a leader with real authority.
Tune in this week as I tackle the emotionally triggering experience of being interrupted in meetings, particularly by male colleagues, and share how to transform it from a moment of powerlessness into an opportunity for demonstrating grounded leadership. Through real audio examples, you'll hear the difference between letting interruptions slide and responding with composed authority that respects both your voice and the dynamic in the room.
