Most New Year’s resolutions don’t last, but a few small shifts in how you communicate can lead to meaningful, lasting change.
Karin Reed shares three communication resolutions designed to help you show up with more confidence, clarity, and impact. She breaks down why winging it is a gamble, how listening can be a superpower, and why your voice deserves to be heard. Through personal stories and insights, she challenges common habits that hold people back—like underpreparing for high-stakes moments, tuning out instead of truly listening, and staying silent when their perspective matters.
Whether you want to be a stronger leader, a more effective speaker, or simply more intentional in daily conversations, Karin offers a fresh approach to communication resolutions that actually stick.
Quotes
“I will not wing it when it matters the most.” (02:49 | Karin Reed)
“The best leaders that I’ve worked with all share this very common belief, this common trait. They believe that it’s more important for them to be good listeners than to be good speakers.” (08:36 | Karin Reed)
“I’m gonna tell you a quote from the book, ‘People Skills,’ which is an oldie but a goodie. It’s written by Dr. Robert Bolton. And he says, ‘The quality of your friendships, the cohesiveness of your family relationships, your effectiveness at work, these hinge in large measure on your ability to listen.’” (15:45 | Karin Reed)
“Your point of view is worth sharing and might inspire others to share their stories as well.” (20:40 | Karin Reed)
“One of my previous guests, Jenn Chase, said preparation is the antidote to imposter syndrome for her. I think that is a great mantra to keep in mind.” (23:35 | Karin Reed)
