151. Improve Your Communication with Kindness: Insights from Sarita Maybin

💬 If "communication" is your 2026 theme, Sarita Maybin is the cheat code.

Because most teams don't have a strategy problem. They have a tone problem.

In today's episode, Sarita breaks down how to say the hard thing without making it weird—or starting a slow-motion workplace fire.

Here's what you'll steal and use immediately:

✅ The Kindness Check — "please" + "thank you" aren't manners. They're leadership tools.

✅ Clear, not cruel — "Say what you mean, mean what you say… but don't say it mean."

✅ The "I noticed/I'm wondering" swap — clarity without blame.

✅ When feedback stings — don't defend first. Ask: "Can you elaborate?"

✅ Culture fix in 4 words — "I need your help…" (watch defensiveness drop.)

🎙️Why event & meeting planners should care: this is a keynote that gives your audience language—not vibes. The kind of practical phrases that show up the very next day in emails, 1:1s, and leadership conversations.
