In this episode, we’re diving into the topic of filler words—those little sounds and phrases like "um," "uh," or "you know" that creep into phone calls, meetings, presentations, and everyday conversations. While nearly everyone uses filler words, they can become a problem when they’re habitual and detract from your message. We’ll explore why filler words happen and their relation to anxiety or the fear of losing control in conversations. The good news is that while filler words are natural, they can be simple to address once the problem is acknowledged!
