98. Why High-Achieving Women Overexplain: From Convincing to Convicted

Episode 98 Published 1 month, 2 weeks ago
Description

Have you ever walked out of a meeting thinking, “Why did I say so much?” You made your point, someone challenged it, and suddenly you found yourself explaining, defending, and repeating your perspective because you needed them to understand.

In this episode, I’m exploring the subtle difference between convincing energy and convicted energy. High-achieving women often overexplain not because they lack knowledge or confidence, but because they become emotionally attached to getting someone else to see things the way they see them. The moment you move from “this is what I believe” to “I need you to believe me,” you start giving away your authority.

This week, you’ll learn how to recognize when you’ve shifted from conviction into convincing, why overexplaining can weaken your leadership presence, and how to communicate with clarity while staying grounded in yourself.
