Speaking with Confidence with Cat Matson: communication coaching for humble leaders

182 - How to Stop Rambling and Get to the Point


Listen Later

How to stop rambling is SUCH a common challenge, I wrote an ebook about it! When I ask the question, ‘what’s your biggest challenge, frustration or issue when it comes to speaking’, ‘rambling is up there in the top 5 responses.

So, in this episode, I’m sharing how to STOP RAMBLING and get to your point.

Listen in to hear:

  • Why we ramble and how it’s actually a sign of intelligence, knowledge and expertise 

  • How thinking in pictures often leads to rambling, and how to translate those pictures into key messages

  • My simple process for collecting your thoughts and identifying your messages BEFORE you open your mouth

  • How to recover when you do start rambling

  • Why it’s not the rambling that you really need to stop (after all, it’s how you process information), it’s how to manage it to be an effective communicator

Join my 7-day Speaking with Impact Practice series and discover how to deliver a memorable message, in any environment, so people listen and take note.
