# What can Em do when I am too irritated to start a conversation well?

Em, the AI coach in Empatyzer, can help you separate what the other person did from your frustration with the whole day: state the issue and the outcome you need, then check which part of your opening carries unrelated irritation.

Use Em to slow the opening down: name the goal, separate the event from the story you are telling yourself about it and choose the first sentence only when you can make the issue clear without passing the irritation on to the other person. Em is available around the clock, so this can take a few minutes right before the conversation.
