The Words For That

About The Words For That

You know that feeling when you're in the middle of a hard conversation and your brain just... stops? When you can't find the words, so you say nothing. Or you say the wrong thing. And then you spend the rest of the night replaying it.

That's why this exists.

The Words For That gives you the exact words for the conversations you keep avoiding. At work, at home, and everywhere you feel stuck.

Not theory. Not “practice active listening.” Not a lecture about emotional intelligence. The actual words you can pull up on your phone before a hard conversation and use immediately.

Who this is for

People with normal jobs and normal problems. People who deal with difficult bosses, tricky coworkers, recurring partner fights, and family members who know exactly which buttons to push.

People who can't quit. Can't walk away. Can't afford $200/hour therapy. And need something useful by Monday morning.

What we make

Every answer follows the same format: what's happening, what not to say, what to say instead, why it works, and what to do if they push back.

Monday. Wednesday. Friday. Free.
