Welcome to the show!

I've got a great episode for you today, Al McBride is with me and we are talking about negotiation.  I recently had the opportunity to speak with Al on his amazing podcast and realized the power of his work.

Voice and negotiation have so much crossover and Al has some incredible teaching around negotiation that he's sharing today including what we get right and where we miss the mark.  

Even if you never sell anything you are still very involved in negotiation in your life.  Many people have a lot of fear around negotiation and it's just not necessary.  Tune and hear how to become a master at negotiation with Al McBride.

Welcome to the show.

Today's episode is on a VERY important topic, being ready and having all the perfect circumstances in place before you can sound good, do your best work with your best voice.

I've been talking about this for years but I want to talk about it again.  You don't have that option and that is where I see people leave TONS of money on the table and miss MASSIVE opportunities, they don't have the perfect circumstances to deliver their message in a way that makes people listen.

Heck, maybe they don't even hear you but they certainly don't feel influenced or inspired to take the action you want them to take.

There is no such thing as perfect circumstances to get it right with your voice.  You have to do the work now so when the world blindsides you, no matter what happens, whenever you are called on...you are ready to make an impact and captivate the room.

Welcome to the show.

Today I'm going to share two negative experiences with you, two experiences that I had in the same day/week.

I talk a lot about creating a positive voice experience but in today's episode, I'm going to share what happens when you don't create a positive voice experience...it costs you.  Two companies lost my business last week.  Now, you might think no big deal but if enough people have a negative experience, it will cost you.

Are you losing clients?  Are you struggling with retention of the clients you have? 

It could be a negative voice experience.

With me today is one of my former students, Dr. Clarissa Castillo-Ramsey.  Our conversation covers so many valuable topics relating to creating a life you love, finding your own creativity and walking a path designed perfectly by you.  We also talk about her exit from the corporate world and how she helps others create their path while leaving and after corporate.  We also discuss finding your own voice and then losing it momentarily as we discuss her recent voice diagnosis.

Clarissa is inspiring and brilliant and you don't want to miss a minute of this episode.

Welcome to the show!

Ouch, that hurts, it's not about you right in the title.  But, hear me out.  Your voice does not work as well when all the focus is on you and how you sound, what you are saying, if you are doing a good job etc...

In today's podcast I'm talking about a topic that I've been teaching my students for a long time which is the more you pour into your listener, the more you make it about them, the better you sound, the more successful you'll be.

I think you will love this episode!

Make sure if you live near Chicago that you join me for my upcoming full day small group event on 10/17.  I have 4 spots left, it's a small group, hands on coaching all day.  I don't want you to miss it!
