15. How To Talk About Something Delicate: a few suggestions an ADEQUATE podcast
-
- Self-Improvement
If you're talking about something delicate, it's important to set up expectations from the start.
This episode contains the beginning of a workshop I delivered to an audience of speakers and would-be speakers, courtesy of a charity, Illuminate, which helps people to overcome their mental health problems, then talk publicly about their experiences.
In other words, what you're going to hear is me giving a talk about giving a talk. So apologies in advance that it's a bit self-referential. Some members of the audience had already delivered talks of their own, others hadn't. In this recording we considered how to set up a kind of "working relationship" with each audience, from the start.
The session as a whole lasted just under an hour, but I'm sharing only the beginning, to keep this episode relatively short.
Thank you to participants, and to Cambridgeshire-based Illuminate for organising this session.
