The Art of Saying What You Actually Mean

Filed in Make it Make Sense — January 16, 2026

This episode looks at why conversations break down when we talk around what we mean instead of saying it directly.

We explore why indirect communication asks other people to read between the lines, how that leads to missed expectations and quiet frustration, and why being more direct isn’t harsh. It’s functional.

If you’ve ever walked away from a conversation thinking, “That’s not what I meant,” this episode is for you.
