Ever find yourself scribbling down your dreams on a scrap of paper (or a napkin!) only to rediscover them months later? Melanie Staunton of Communicate Training did just that, and her story of transforming whimsical napkin notes into a tale of achieved aspirations will have you believing in the power of intention!
As we chat with Melanie, a stroll down her memory lane in Hong Kong reveals the importance of mental clarity and the role of diverse cultural experiences in shaping her journey from law and acting to becoming a corporate training maestro. She brings her experiences full circle, illustrating how the art of storytelling and the gift-of-the-gab are not just for the stage but vital for success in every walk of life.
Imagine the pure joy of finding your groove in a Rihanna music video, or better yet, the exhilaration of helping others find their voice. That's the pulse of our conversation with Melanie Staunton, as we reflect on the transformative power of effective communication and public speaking. With tales that span from dramatic performances to the boardroom, Melanie shares insights on how embracing feedback and owning your unique past can fuel your professional endeavors. And if you're thinking about the impact of personal relationships on your career trajectory, she's got anecdotes that reaffirm the profound influence of these connections.
As we wrap up, Melanie unfolds her vision for leaving a legacy of empowerment and positivity, drawing parallels between her love for rich red velvet cake and her passion for enriching lives through Communicate. And if you've ever wondered how to craft a future that reflects the best version of yourself, her dedication to clarity over certainty offers a guiding light. It's not just about honing communication skills; it's about embracing the journey of self-discovery and the joy of being a beacon of hope in someone's cloud.
Join us as we celebrate Melanie's two-year entrepreneurial anniversary of Hong Kong based Communicate Training, as she 'Passes the Baton' to keep the golden thread of the storytelling going to Jennifer Ryan Peery Logue (another inspiring voice in the speaking industry) all the while basking in the shared wisdom that can only come from a global community.
