resume phrasing help pls 😩

so I’ve been updating my resume and keep running into the same problem: how the heck do you phrase stuff in a way that sounds good but not fake or try-hard? like I know I helped manage projects and lead meetings, but when I write “Collaborated cross-functionally with stakeholders…” I literally gag a little lol.


is that how people actually phrase things? or is there a better way to sound professional without feeling like you copied a LinkedIn influencer?
