EP131 The Words That Are Undermining Your Authority
In this episode of Better Skills. Better Doctors., I break down how seemingly harmless language, like “try,” “hope,” “unfortunately,” or even “I don’t know", can erode your authority, your patient’s trust, and your ability to lead.
These words, often rooted in people-pleasing and perfectionism, are especially common in a profession dominated by women trained to soften their voice. I share examples of how these habits show up in treatment plans, communication, and self-talk, and why it matters more than you think. Language shapes perception, and perception shapes compliance, confidence, and outcomes.
If you're tired of not being taken seriously, this episode will show you how to start speaking like the doctor your patients are looking for.
