"Take a Mulligan" with Kenny and Brian Mulligan

Let's talk about interruptions – you know, those moments when you're in the middle of sharing something important, and suddenly, you find yourself cut off? Yeah, they're not exactly fun, are they? But here's the thing – interruptions come in different flavors, and it's important to know how to handle them.

First up, we have the power interrupt – you know, the kind where someone cuts you off mid-sentence and tries to take over the conversation? Yeah, not cool. These power interrupters are all about asserting their dominance and making sure their voice is heard above all others. But hey, you don't have to engage with that energy. Sometimes the best response is to gracefully bow out and move on to greener pastures.

Then there's the rapport interrupt – a slightly more subtle form of interruption where someone jumps in to add to the conversation. Now, these interruptions aren't malicious; they're usually just a sign of enthusiasm and eagerness to join the discussion. But even so, it can still feel like you've been sidelined.

So, how do you handle interruptions? Well, it depends on the situation. If it's a power interrupt, sometimes the best course of action is to politely excuse yourself from the conversation and focus your energy elsewhere. But if it's a rapport interrupt, you can gently guide the conversation back on track while still acknowledging the other person's contribution.

Ultimately, whether you're dealing with a power interrupt or a rapport interrupt, the key is to stay true to yourself and your message. Don't let anyone dim your light or silence your voice – you have every right to be heard and respected.

So, my friends, the next time you find yourself interrupted, take a deep breath, assess the situation, and respond with grace and confidence. And hey, if you've got any stories or insights to share about interruptions, I'd love to hear them! Drop me a message on Instagram or shoot me an email – let's keep the conversation going.

Until next time, stay authentic, stay resilient, and keep chasing those dreams!
