Why is it so hard to remember that we deserve to be heard? Staying silent in our professional lives can feel like the safe choice, but it can have unintended consequences on our overall career trajectory.

In this episode, Elaine Lin Hering shares what her research, experience in mediation and conflict management, and new book "Unlearning Silence" have to say about why so many of us—especially women—are reticent to raise our voices. She highlights the intrinsic connection between wielding our voices—both audibly and through our actions—and recognizing our self-worth.

Examine the ways that silence impacts your own life, including:

Where does our tendency toward silence stem from?;
Why we need to question and dismantle the “babble hypothesis”;
Why just talking more isn’t the goal of unlearning silence;
How leaders can actively push back against silencing team members.
