You ever get put on the spot with no warning and a blinking cursor (or camera light) staring you in the face? That’s exactly what happened to Kathy today — live — as we tested one of our favorite training drills… and guess what? She messed up. On air. And we kept it. 💥

But here’s the thing: this episode isn’t about being perfect. It’s about training your brain to reset, training your body to calm down, and building that polished, confident virtual presence one tiny practice moment at a time.

If you’re tired of filler words, fuzzy delivery, or feeling like you’re not “camera ready,” this one’s for you.

🔥 A few of the tips we offer in this episode:

🧪 Try It With Us:

We dare you to try the One Minute Drill:

It’s harder than it sounds. But it's also one of the most effective ways to grow. 🙌  If you try this drill at home, please let us know!  We'd love to hear about it!  

💡 Resources Mentioned:

🎯 Final Word:

This episode isn’t about showing off polished skills. It’s about being bold enough to practice out loud, mess up on purpose, and know you're in a safe space to get better.

Start small. Start now. And if your camera makes you sweat? Good. You’re on the edge of growth.

💬 Share this episode with your awkward-on-camera bestie, your Zoom-fatigued boss, or your college student who’s about to present to 300 people. They'll thank you later.

In this short episode of the Virtual Presentation Skills podcast, I am talking about virtual leadership in real life.

I recorded this episode outside in beautiful Sunriver, Oregon while spending time with my family and my grandbaby. It was casual, windy, imperfect, and exactly the right setting for this conversation because leadership is not about waiting for the perfect moment. It is about showing up, adapting, and knowing how to pivot.

I also share why I am excited about my new AI coaching programs and the tools I am currently using to build apps, create content, automate business systems, and train AI agents.

In this Week One Rotation episode of the Virtual Presentation Skills Podcast, Kimberli Gilbert interviews Candace Cox about virtual leadership, women in business, mentorship, entrepreneurship, adapting to technology, and the human connection leaders still need in an AI-driven world.

In this episode of the Virtual Presentation Skills Podcast, I’m kicking off our Week One Rotation focused on virtual leadership with a very special guest, Candace Cox.

Candace is a retired business owner, professional development expert, mentor, and true barrier breaker. She built and led UniVentures for more than 40 years, at a time when it was far less common for women to own businesses, lead companies, or carve their own path in the professional world.

Her story takes us from business school in the 1970s, to pharmaceutical sales in Nebraska, to corporate marketing research, to launching and growing a global professional development company. Along the way, Candace shares what it took to keep going, how curiosity became one of her greatest leadership assets, and why mentorship matters so much for women and emerging leaders.

We also talk about virtual leadership, early remote work, satellite-based learning, webinars, AI, and the mindset leaders need when technology changes faster than we feel ready for.

This conversation is about courage, curiosity, grit, reinvention, and the human connection that still matters in a virtual world. 🎙️

1. Leadership often starts with belief.

2. Curiosity creates opportunity.

3. Mentorship matters.

4. Virtual leadership is not new.

5. AI is another transition, not the end of human value.

In my very first episode of the Virtual Presentation Skills Podcast, you'll hear from Kathy for a nostalgic conversation about where it all began, why virtual presentation skills matter, and how showing up with confidence, credibility, and presence in the 2D world can impact your career, communication, and income.

I’m joined by Kathy Gadinas for a nostalgic and meaningful conversation about the real impact of virtual presentation skills training. Kathy shares how she used what she learned from my training before she officially became part of the organization, and how those skills helped her thrive in the insurance industry.

This episode is especially meaningful because it marks the beginning of this podcast journey. I also share why virtual presentation skills are not limited to one industry. Whether you work in insurance, tech, aviation, healthcare, landscaping, coaching, sales, leadership, or any other field, the way you show up online matters.

I’ve spent more than 20 years developing presentation training programs based on hands-on experience, brain science, and neuro-linguistic principles. After training more than 8,500 people in over 33 countries, I’ve seen firsthand how learning to communicate well in the 2D world can change confidence, credibility, client relationships, career opportunities, and income potential.

This podcast is here to help you look, sound, and communicate with more confidence online. In future episodes, I’ll be sharing full-length conversations, short mini-casts, practical virtual communication tips, free resources, real-world coaching strategies, and honest conversations about the online presentation mistakes most people don’t even realize they are making.

This is where the story begins, and I’m so grateful you’re here for it.

Virtual presentation skills are no longer optional.

Small changes can create major results.

The 2D world has real financial impact.

This podcast is designed to be practical and fun.

I’m sharing how I used ChatGPT for smarter travel packing in this Work From Anywhere episode. Learn how AI can help reduce overpacking, plan outfits, and make remote work travel easier.

What if ChatGPT could help me pack my suitcase more efficiently?

In this 10-Minute Mastery episode of the Virtual Presentation Skills Podcast, I continue the Work From Anywhere series with a fun and practical look at how AI can make travel easier. After realizing I have a tendency to overpack, I decided to lay out my travel wardrobe and use ChatGPT to analyze my suitcase, outfit options, and packing style.

✨The result? A smarter, more efficient approach to packing — with fewer unnecessary items, better outfit combinations, and a clearer plan for staying professional, comfortable, and ready for anything while working from anywhere.

In this episode, I explore how ChatGPT can help us rethink everyday travel tasks, from choosing mix-and-match outfits to identifying our own packing style. I also share how AI is becoming a useful tool not just for business, but for the practical details that support a flexible, mobile work life.

If you travel for work, present virtually from different locations, or simply want to stop overpacking, this episode will give you a simple AI-powered idea to try before your next trip.

In this episode, I take a quick side-squirrel from our Work From Anywhere series to talk about something I am very excited about right now: AI and how it can help us present, work, create, and run our businesses more efficiently.

I share how I have been using AI tools to create slide decks, write speaker notes, summarize audience feedback, build apps, support webinar production, and simplify day-to-day business tasks.

AI is moving fast, but I still believe the human touch matters. These tools are powerful, but they work best when we train them, guide them, and make sure the final result sounds like us.

AI is not here to replace your brilliance. It is here to help you spend less time on repetitive tasks and more time doing the work you love.

And yes… let’s please #EndTheNoseMadness. No more logging into virtual meetings nose-first. 😉
