Clutter Free Academy

Are you a reluctant speaker?  Public speaking is the number #1 fear of the majority of people.

Kathi and co-host Erin MacPherson give you some tips that will take your speaking from on level to the next.

1. One Point, One Point, One Point - Just cover one point!  You can have multiple examples, but only one major point.

2. Recognize Your Are Not the Hero - No one cares that you are an expert.  You have to be relatable.

3. Show Them the Journey - Look where I started.  Look at the problems I overcame.  If I can do it YOU can too!

4,  What is Your Takeaway - If you could only give your audience one message they will remember, what would it be?   A catchy takeaway or a reminder of some sort will help them remember.

 

Listen in as they discuss these four tips and how you can become a better speaker.
