In this episode of Speaking With Confidence, host Tim Newman has an inspiring and thought-provoking conversation with Greg Bennick, a world-class speaker, best-selling author, and a master of connection. Together, they explore Greg’s journey from overturning Seattle’s infamous Teen Dance Ordinance to becoming a leading voice in communication and leadership. 

Greg shares how his mother’s influence shaped his speaking style and how personal experiences, like the legendary “pinball incident” and a heartwarming train journey in India, demonstrated the power of humor, kindness, and shared humanity. Along the way, they uncover how laughter strengthens bonds, how listening builds bridges, and why stepping into the unknown is the key to unlocking new possibilities.

From his encounter with the Dalai Lama to his cross-cultural experiences in Ukraine and Russia, Greg reminds us that communication is more than just words, it’s about fostering understanding, breaking down barriers, and finding connection even in the most unexpected places.
