In this episode of The Chōten Podcast, I sit down with Kim Barnes, a communication expert and coach who has spent her career helping leaders, founders, and professionals develop the confidence and clarity to speak with impact.

Kim brings decades of experience in broadcasting, public speaking, on-camera presence, and executive communication — and she’s helped thousands of people transform the way they show up in their careers and businesses.

We dive into:
🔥 Why most people struggle to communicate their message clearly
🔥 How founders can become more confident, persuasive communicators
🔥 The biggest mistakes people make on camera and in presentations
🔥 The mindset shift required to speak with authority
🔥 How communication changes when you’re leading a team or a brand
🔥 Why the future belongs to those who can tell their story well
🔥 And how AI will impact communication skills and content creation

Kim breaks communication down in a way that’s practical, empowering, and instantly applicable — whether you’re a founder, salesperson, creator, or someone who wants to show up with more confidence.
