Episode notes
When the pressure is on and emotions run high, even the most articulate leaders can find their voice disappears. In this episode of The Inner Edge, Janet explores what really happens to our communication under stress and how to stay grounded, clear, and intentional when it matters most. This conversation goes beyond communication tips and into the deeper work of self-leadership. Janet breaks down the biology of pressure, explains why clarity vanishes in high-stakes moments, and shares practical tools to help you regulate your nervous system, anchor your presence, and speak from intention rather than reaction.
