This Moved Me

To my delight, authenticity has been a buzz word and goal of speakers for a long time. As “talks” have become a preferred and powerful platform for LEADERS (not just professional and motivational speakers), the door has opened to more and more people to share their stories in their own way.    This, my friends/speakers/movers!, is a wonderful thing! As a presentation coach whose mission is to create talks that move the world (not to create talks that are perfect and overly polished and ‘right but boring’) - I LOVE that audiences want more than just the standard chicken-dinner presentation.    They want REAL.  They want BRAVE.  They want… YOU.    That’s the good news.    But it also means that more and more of us are finding ourselves up in front, and the bar is higher. Leading. Speaking. Daring.    And in that big moment…  sometimes WE DON’T FEEL LIKE OURSELVES. It can sometimes feel like we’re playing a role, or being a “character” of a speaker.    Who do you become up on stage?    Hopefully, you are YOU…You
