You didn't understand what that person just asks you but you don't want to seem stupid in a professional environment. Does that resonate with you? If it does, then I'm happy to tell you that this is a common phoenomenon for many people like you. However, just because everybody is in the same boat, doesn't make it much easier in the moment. In this episode I want to share with you some different techniques you can use and alternatives that you can say "I didn't understand." or "Can you repeat?" (there are others!). Enjoy!
