On this week's episode of Own the Microphone, Bridgett McGowen welcomes founder of HBCU Biz; owner of the leadership and sales consulting company; Business Growth Dynamics Consulting; and, of course, public speaker Howard White. Bridgett and Howard discuss Howard growing up speaking in church and the first time he spoke outside of church, how to make sure the audience remembers the whole presentation, giving the audience just enough to be dangerous, and much more.
