385: Leading with Story in Your Talks [Roundtable]

Speaking Your Brand: Public Speaking for Women

You know how powerful storytelling is in your presentations and talks. How can you go about integrating your stories in a way that truly connects you to your audiences?

There is no *one way* to integrate stories into your talks.

Your story can be central to your talk or it can be a supporting element.

You can play with the timeline of the story - start in the middle and then come back to the beginning later or start at the end.

In this episode, our lead speaking coach Diane Diaz hosts three of our clients who were at our recent 3-day in-person speaking retreat, Darci Foshay, Dani Einsohn, and Teri Reuter, for a roundtable discussion on what they learned and insights they have for you as speakers.

They talk about:

• Why they decided to attend our in-person retreat
• How they use storytelling in their talks
• Using the stage and body movement as part of active storytelling
• What it was like to practice with us and then get filmed
