This is the first in a six-part bonus series where I’ll be bringing you into our Cusp Collective conference this year. These episodes are my personal reflections of each speaker's presentation, what I took from it, how I use it in my life and how it can be applied to your clinical practice. 

First up is Annelise McCarthy, founder of Her Speaking Coach and an expert in public speaking and powerful communication.

We talk confidence, presence, and assertive language; and how these skills take you from consult rooms to tough conversations. Communication shapes how we’re seen, how we lead, and how we thrive as clinicians.

I'll share the 3 most impactful insights that I have been practising all year, and how correcting a drinks order reminded me of an important life lesson.

This episode is for everyone who needs a strong nudge to start using their voice, as Annelise urges us all to do.
