    Comfort Zones, Conferences, and Clients: What I Learned This Summer | Ep 438

    The fastest way to get better at speaking may be to stop speaking and watch from the audience. A summer filled with conferences and clients revealed what makes a presentation memorable, and what makes it fall flat. From missing speaker introductions to a last-minute emergency, every moment offered a lesson. You’ll also hear why AI-written speeches can sound bland, how to bring more personality to your message, and why rescheduling a coaching call can lead to a much stronger presentation. You’ll learn: Why a strong speaker introduction matters, so the audience feels excited before the presentation beginsHow to prepare for a speaker emergency, so you can become the person meeting planners call when plans changeWhy AI-generated speeches often sound “generic store brand ice cream vanilla,” so you can make your message sound like youHow to build a speech that takes the audience through an experience, so your ideas are easier to rememberWhy choosing something hard can pull you out of autopilot, so you feel proud of what you’re capable of doing Pick your hard. Do it anyway. And feel proud when you finish. >>> To learn more about the 2 Month Intensive and get your personalized Signature Speech written book a call to learn more at https://speakandstandout.com/speaker-success >>> To learn more about INDSS done on your time frame, https://speakandstandout.com/offer-indss >>>To get on the email list and here about the SPECIAL OFFER, sign up here https://speakandstandout.com/news

What if you could walk into any room and adapt on the spot, no matter what chaos unfolds? That’s exactly what you’ll discover in this episode.

You’ll hear real stories about facing big obstacles, quick pivots, and gaining the confidence to lead, connect, and bounce back stronger after slip-ups. Here's what you'll learn: Keeping your composure when a room goes sideways, like losing half your speaking time without warning, is a skill you can train, and why the audience should never feel the chaos you're managing behind the scenes.Having a handful of flexible stories ready to reshape for any room, before you ever open your mouth, means you can always hand an audience the lesson they actually came for.Presence doesn't switch off the moment you step off stage, the moment you realize the version of you people meet backstage has to match the one they just watched speak. >>>Book a Speaker Success Call at https://speakandstandout.com/speaker-success Experts Edge newsletter delivered right to you inbox: https://speakandstandout.com/bid-newsletter Connect with me on: LinkedIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/laurie-ann-murabito Instagram: @laurieann.murabito Visit my website for more advice and tips Thank you for listening, LA

    BONUS: Danny Goldberg on Boundaries, Assertiveness, and Ditching People Pleasing

    Being nice and being a pushover are not the same thing, and only one of them gets you respected. Danny Goldberg wrote the book on this, literally. He's the author of "A Little Bit of A$$hole," and he joins the show to talk about the fine line between people pleasing and having real boundaries, and why the leaders who get remembered are the ones who know the difference. Here's what you'll learn: The gut-check question that tells you it's time to stop people-pleasing, before resentment builds.Why pushing harder when someone stalls backfires, and exactly what to do instead.The real difference between confidence and being a jerk, which means you can stand firm and still be liked.Why companies hire resumes and fire personalities, and why that's exactly backwards for building a team.The one thing you should never do at the end of a talk or a hard conversation, so next time you leave people with your strongest point instead of a shrug.
