Your Brain Shuts Down When You Try Not to Say 'Um' | Michael Hoeppner • 438

Why is almost all communication coaching worse than useless?

Michael Hoeppner breaks down why mental advice for what's actually a physical art form keeps you stuck in self-consciousness and thought suppression. This conversation goes beyond tips and tricks into the neuroscience of why trying NOT to say "um" makes you say it more.

What you'll learn:

• Why speaking takes 120 muscles but gets mental coaching
• How thought suppression sabotages your communication automatically
• The embodied cognition approach that actually builds skill

Michael Hoeppner coaches presidential candidates and created GK Training. He's the author of bestseller "Don't Say Um" and has spent decades studying why conventional communication advice backfires.
