The Work Flow Podcast

Ep. 33 - “The audience is not there to JUDGE you. They are there to LEARN.”

In this episode, Nasheen, an expert public speaking coach, shares her journey from the corporate world to becoming a TEDx speaker and communication coach. Together, Sam and Nasheen explore the art of public speaking, both in-person and online, offering practical advice on how to connect with your audience, overcome fear, and make an impact in every presentation. Whether you're a seasoned speaker or just starting, this episode is packed with tips to elevate your speaking skills and build confidence.

Key Takeaways

• One of the biggest mistakes is treating in-person and virtual speaking as completely different skill sets.
• Great public speakers bring their authentic personalities into their presentations.
• Sharing personal stories in your presentations doesn’t just engage your audience but also boosts your confidence.
• Small details like turning on your camera and being well-framed can help you stand out in a virtual sea of mediocrity.
• While practice makes public speaking easier, it doesn’t guarantee improvement.

Public speaking isn’t just about delivering a message; it’s about connecting with your audience, whether you're on stage or behind a screen. By focusing on authenticity, practicing with intention, and paying attention to the details, you can transform from a good speaker to a great one.
