As someone who was once anxious about speaking in public, my intention was to create a podcast where I could share the tools and techniques I’ve discovered and applied throughout my own confident communication journey, with you. I also invite inspiring guests, and together we explore how communication shapes their work and lives.
I hope you find the podcast useful, and if you do, subscribe and take the next step to your public speaking confidence by joining my upcoming coaching events.

How to present effectively whilst using presentation slides – 133
When using presentation slides it's important to consider the needs of the audience.
This means incorporating the slides into the presentation in such a way that the speaker remains connected to the audience at all times.
Unfortunately, some presenters have a tendency to turn away from their audience and read directly from the slides themselves.
This isn't an effective way of delivering presentations.
In today’s episode I share how to present effectively whilst using presentation slides.

Why it’s important to move with purpose to connect with your audience – 131
While public speaking, you're probably going to move around.
I think this is a good thing to do.
And if you do it with purpose, you'll be able to connect your movements with your words.
This means your audience can connect with your message in terms of what you're saying, and what they see you do.
Moving with purpose elevates the impact of your public speaking.
But sometimes when you’re moving around, you may want to move back to the spot where you started speaking from.
How can you do this to ensure you maintain connection with your audience?
In today’s episode I share why it's important to move with purpose to connect with your audience.

In focus! Building rapport with others – 132
Whether you’re having a conversation, navigating a job interview, or speaking in public,
I’m sure you’ll agree that creating and maintaining rapport with others is important.
And what is rapport? Well I like this definition from the web:
“a close and harmonious relationship in which the people or groups concerned understand each other's feelings or ideas and communicate well”.
And that is the key part “communicate well”.
So, whenever you communicate with others, being in rapport with them is very important.
Especially if you want them to hear your ideas, connect with your words, agree with your message.
What is the most straight forward way to create rapport with others?
In today’s episode I’m speaking with a breast cancer surgeon who talks about building rapport with others.
