Welcome to the show!!!  Can you tell that I’m a bit overexcited about today’s episode?  Well, that’s because we’re combining two of my absolute favorite topics: building confidence, and having FUN!

Today’s episode is perfect for anyone who wants to evolve into a CONFIDENT speaker at work.  In this episode, I walk you through how to determine your AUTHENTIC confident voice – what it sounds like & feels like – and then how to tap into it at work!

I also walk you through an exercise that you can do at home to start getting comfortable using your body to express confidence.  To see me doing the exercise, head to the facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/theartofspeakingup/

And for reference, the exercise ‘walks’ (this will make sense after you listen) are:

1. Across the room

I hope you have fun playing around with this!  Let me know how it goes – the best way to reach out is via Instagram at @theartofspeakingup

Hope you’re doing so so well

Love,

Jess

In light of the difficult global circumstances surrounding the COVID-19 crisis, I wanted to share an episode on how to speak to yourself kindly during moments of uncertainty and fear.

If you're looking to give back or do a kind deed to help those who are impacted by COVID-19, please consider making a donation to Food on Foot, a local Los Angeles non-profit that helps provide housing and employment to the homeless population of Los Angeles.  Many of those who were previously homeless have lost their jobs and are at high risk of becoming homeless again.  These dollars can literally help change the trajectory of someone's life with just the click of a 'donate' button:

Please take extra good care of yourself during this time

Welcome to the show!  In today’s bonus episode, you will be hearing from my Season 3 guests as they answer a listener question on how to pursue a role that isn’t a perfect fit with your existing skills.  You’ll hear us chat about confidence, inner and outer career narratives, resumes, and so much more!

Be sure to check out my full length interviews with the guests you’re hearing in this bonus episode – their interviews are linked below.

As always, thanks for tuning in and have a wonderful day!

Welcome to the final episode of Season 3!  If you have struggled with fear, dread, or anxiety at the thought of confidently speaking up and introducing yourself to a room full of colleagues, then today’s episode is for you.

Today I am reading a personal essay that I wrote about my fear of introducing myself to large groups of people.  I am writing about my own experience in the hopes that my story can be used as a vehicle to help you find self-love in spite of your fear, and eventually find the courage to make peace with your fear and speak up boldly in any situation.

This episode was a vulnerable share for me, so if you enjoyed it, it would mean so much to me if you could share your feedback in Apple Podcasts.

I’d love to hear from you also – so please send me a DM on Instagram at @theartofspeakingup

If you’re looking for community, be sure to join the facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/theartofspeakingup/

I hope you’re having a fabulous week.  And if you ever feel afraid to introduce yourself to a large group of people, please remember that your levels of courage are only limited by the decisions that you are willing to make, moment to moment to moment.

Be patient, because change takes time, but also be willing to believe in change and bet on yourself.

All my love,

Jess

We’re back again this week with Caitlin!  Perhaps the only thing I like more than strengths is Myers Briggs, also known as the MBTI.  This personality test has helped me understand myself so much better – and I’m so excited to share it with you!
