Stand Out Get Noticed

Everyone feels fear - we simply differ in the way we handle it. For some people, it's paralysing, and others take action regardless. I recently read Susan Jeffers' book, Feel The Fear...And Do It Anyway, which I highly recommend if fear is holding you back in your life. In this episode, I share the '5 Truths About Fear' from the book. Whether you have a fear of public speaking or asserting yourself, to sharing your ideas or having difficult conversations, this podcast is for you. Show notes are at www.thecmethod.com/feelfear. This has been Episode 158 of the Stand Out Get Noticed Podcast with Christina Canters.

Stand up comedy is one of the hardest forms of public speaking to master. But it IS learnable, just like any other skill! In this episode, join me on the journey of how I - and my 12 brave classmates - learned the art of stand up comedy with The School Of Hard Knock Knocks. We took part in a 5-day course, which culminated in a performance night where we made our comedy debuts to a live audience. Hear us share our fears, our lessons learned..and a few bad jokes as well.

Women in technical professions are often highly skilled, but a lack of confidence holds them back from speaking up, sharing their ideas and going for opportunities. As a result, they are often undervalued and overlooked, leading to lower job satisfaction and slower career progression. In this recording of my workshop for Girl Geek Dinners, I share my 5 big ideas on how smart, ambitious women can understand their value, be more assertive and, as a result, get closer to achieving their career goals. Summary, additional resources and presentation slides are available in the show notes at https://thecmethod.com/speakup. This has been Episode 155 of the Stand Out Get Noticed Podcast with Christina Canters. **To explore how a high-energy workshop like this could benefit the women in your team, community or organisation, email Christina at [email protected]**

Want to have better working relationships with your colleagues, boss and stakeholders? In this podcast, I share a simple concept for doing so that will blow your mind (yes, really). And it's about 'small talk'. Whether you love it or loathe it, small talk DOES play a role in the workplace -- it's just a matter of how, when and with whom you use it. If you can understand this concept and implement some really simple techniques, you will connect better with people at work, have more engagement with your team, as well as less conflict. Show notes are at https://thecmethod.com/smalltalk. This has been Episode 154 of the 'Stand Out Get Noticed' Podcast with Christina Canters. If you want to further develop your small talk skills, join my free 'Small Talk Made Simple' 10-day email class at https://thecmethod.com/freeconfidencecourse/
