This episode tackles a crucial topic: **how to eliminate filler words**. Filler words (like "um," "ah," and "like") are crutches that make you sound unprofessional.

I offer three essential strategies:

1. **Become aware** of your specific crutch word by listening back to recordings or using a sticky note near your mic.
2. **Practice pausing:** Replace fillers with intentional silence. Pauses feel longer to you than the audience, but they are effective.
3. **Slow down:** Rushing often triggers filler words because your brain doesn't have time to keep up.

I also recommend preparing key points and structuring thoughts using the **Power of Three**. Get feedback from trusted colleagues during practice.

Listen now! How do you eliminate fillers? https://podcastanswers.com/fillerwords
