Say Thank You Instead of Sorry

Why do we so often apologize for things that are not our fault?

“Sorry I’m late” in the medical world.

Being late is not your fault. 15-minute appointments were someone else’s crazy idea. You weren’t responsible for the serious issue another patient had that took longer than that.

Why do we make our inherent human actions and feelings wrong?

I’m sorry for crying.

Why do we say sorry for taking up space in the world?

Sorry to bother you. Sorry for taking so long in a group coaching session.

Saying sorry constantly takes a toll.

What if instead you said: “Thank you for waiting.”

Thank you for listening. Thank you for being there for me.

How might you feel different?

Over time, how might you act differently?

When I help women notice their default language and how it impacts them.

Well beyond their use of the word sorry.

And then I help them change their language.

When they shift their language, their entire identity shifts.

They stand taller, more proud, feel more whole, and act more empowered. They make healthier decisions, have more clarity, and move through the world with more ease.

In a relatively short time, with simple and subtle language changes, their broader life experience usually changes.

Would you like this to be you?
