Just learned this magical (?) new hack for folks that “uhm” and “uh” a lot on calls. Write out whatever your verbal tic is, (mine is “uhm”), draw a big red circle around it, and cross through it right before your meeting. 🚫
This brings awareness to your verbal clutter to replace these filler words with thoughtful pauses.
Let me know if it worked for you on your next call :).
