ADVICE

Pocket Phrases for Sensitive Topics

  • Prepare pocket phrases for recurring questions or comments you'd rather not discuss in detail.
  • This conserves your emotional energy and steers conversations on your terms.
ADVICE

Deflecting with Grace

  • If you don't wish to elaborate, use short, polite responses to acknowledge the question but avoid details.
  • Try phrases like, "I'm thankful to be on the mend," or "How have you been doing lately?"
ADVICE

Turning the Tables

  • Redirect nosy questions by asking, "Why do you ask?"
  • This encourages the asker to explain their interest, allowing for a more meaningful response.
