Why You Struggle to Sound Articulate When You Speak [091]

November 01, 2023 • Kara Ronin • Season 3 • Episode 91

Have you ever been in a situation where you struggled to sound articulate when you speak? Maybe your thoughts were muddled and you couldn’t communicate them in an organised way. Maybe your mind went blank because you forgot what you wanted to say. Struggling to articulate your thoughts and communicate them clearly is a very common problem and there are a number of reasons why this happens.

In this episode, I reveal seven common reasons as to why you struggle to sound articulate when you speak. I talk about:

Jumping in too fast
Communicating too much information
Not clarifying the problem/question
Wanting to sound intelligent
Vocabulary tips
Anxiety when speaking
Reading and writing for better speaking
