Show Notes
It’s time to learn how to talk so you feel heard. You don’t need to learn how to speak publicly to go on a stage, but you do need to know how to speak to advance any personal or professional relationships you will have. In this episode of how to twenty-something, Actor and Speaking Coach, Brian Lafontaine, shows how he has related his acting experience to the way he helps his clients learn how to put their best foot forward. We talk about vulnerability, storytelling, not being afraid of being the youngest, how to avoid filler words and so much more.
Key Takeaways:
- How to make your ‘talk’ not a one way conversation
- Using your vulnerable side to connect with your audience
- What happens when you’re the youngest one in the room having to speak
- Getting over stage fright or nerves
- Why you need to learn how to storytell
- The balance between providing too much detail and not enough
