What if the way you speak could instantly shift how people see themselves—and how they show up? In this eye-opening episode of Beyond Confidence, Divya Parekh and Dr. Dianne Olvera delve into how subtle language shifts can foster trust, enhance self-awareness, and transform everyday conversations into powerful leadership tools. You'll learn why asking questions (instead of giving directions) fosters ownership and confidence, how to identify strengths in others to help them thrive, and how to create environments—at home, at work, or in school—where people feel safe, empowered, and understood. If you're looking for a practical, neuroscience-backed approach to elevating the surrounding people, this episode is packed with tools you can use right away.
