Quarantine life has inevitably made all of us question what it means to be human. While there are a plethora of answers, perhaps it boils down to ultimately one answer.

Our ability to uniquely communicate

*Using our thumbs to write, type, and text

*Having verbal communication with our words and spoken language

What do you think is the answer to what makes us human?

Episode 9 investigates how you build your confidence. Karate, Kung Fu, "Tiger Schulman's" MMA -what do they have in common? This is a revealing podcast about why John chose to devote himself to the Art of Public Speaking over any other sport or activity. Confidence. They all promote themselves as ways to gain self-confidence. What's the limitation? Frankly, the lack of practicality and that it's a secondary source of confidence. Oh contrarily, public speaking is a primary source of confidence and it's applications are prevalent and profound. Questions to ask yourself are...

*How often do you throw punch outside of the dojo your entire life?

*How often do you speak in your entire life?

*How will learning karate directly help you professionally in comparison to learning public speaking?

*What's a better way to resolve your anger?

Public speaking takes the day. Tell us you thoughts about our discover. Learn to block a punch before it happens with speaking rather than hope your karate block stops it.

Episode 8 delves deeper in both emotion and introspection. What does it mean for you to inevitably get older with each passing year? What does this mean for your relationships?

The law of entropy (disorder) and natural atrophy 

*Knowing self-awareness in your self-presentation

*Understanding your backdrop and atmosphere

*Crafting a vocal and visual version of you the way you want and the way others perceive you

If you can control the way people see and hear you, what do you want people to remember about you? Get thinking because now you can.
