Ever left a conversation replaying your words on a mental loop, wondering why it felt so awkward?or worse, why it just died? Do you dread small talk, freeze when trying to start conversations, or find yourself trapped in endless chats that never seem to end?

Good news: great conversations aren't a gift you're born with?they're a skill you can learn. And it's easier than you think.

In Say This, Not That, author Jordan Harris takes you on a step-by-step journey to transform how you communicate. Packed with humor, practical strategies, and easy-to-apply tools, this book will teach you how to connect with anyone?whether you're at a party, networking event, or just grabbing your morning coffee.

You'll learn how to:

• Start conversations that actually go somewhere (No more, "So... uh, how's the weather?").
• Master the art of small talk without feeling fake or forced.
• Use proven techniques to navigate awkward moments?like blanking out mid-conversation or dealing with long silences.
• Respond to bad news and share empathy without fumbling. (Hint: "Everything happens for a reason" is not the move.)
• Exit conversations gracefully, even with people who don't stop talking.
• Handle difficult conversations with tact and confidence.
• Overcome social anxiety by shifting the focus away from yourself (spoiler: it's not you?it's your brain being dramatic).
• Receive compliments without deflecting or degrading them?because saying, "Oh, I just got lucky" isn't doing you (or the compliment giver) any favors.
