Have you ever been asked a question that was phrased in a way that made you feel like the person asking assumed you knew way more about something than you did? How we ask questions, even though it may seem insignificant, can have a significant impact on how a person feels and ultimately responds. In this episode, Chase shares a real-life example of being asked a presumptive question that put him into a bit of a panic. He also offers ideas on how to avoid asking these types of questions in order to elicit a more genuine answer. So, let's explore the power of our questioning techniques and strive to create a more trusting and comfortable environment for meaningful conversations.
