Disagreeing with someone can be difficult.

Whether you are disagreeing with someone about their preferred pizza toppings… Or how much time you need to complete a project… Disagreeing with someone doesn’t just come down to the words we use. What you say and the way you communicate it really matters and makes the difference.

How can you disagree with someone but still show you are listening to them, and you respect their opinion?

In today’s episode I am sharing what you need to do and think about before even saying a word to disagree with someone so you can get the best reaction and outcome. I am also sharing a free PDF guide for you with phrases to disagree in English and the important steps to follow before disagreeing.
