The Words We Choose: The Power of Intentional Language with Terre Short

How do the words we choose shape our lives, relationships, and leadership? In this episode of Beyond the Bestseller, I sit down with Terre Short, author of The Words We Choose, to explore how intentional language can inspire positivity, build confidence, and create deeper connections. Terre shares her journey as an author and leadership coach, revealing how even small shifts in word choices can have a transformative impact.

We dive into:

• Why your internal narrative (your “personal podcast”) matters and how to rewrite it for success.
• The difference between saying “I have to” vs. “I get to” and how it fosters gratitude.
• The power of eliminating limiting words and replacing them with assertive, intentional language.
• Terre’s writing journey, tips for aspiring authors, and what’s next for her in the leadership space.

This conversation is packed with actionable insights for anyone looking to improve communication, build resilience, and lead with intention.
