Are You in Verbal Shape?
Things are opening up. We are leaving the house! Are you ready? Are you in shape?
Heavenly to be inside a restaurant. . .tinkly music on the sound system, the murmuring of a waiter and
bartender nearby (but not TOO nearby). No big wind sounds, or traffic.
I broke open my earring box, tried on a pair. Yep, ears still pierced. Retail store! First new trousers in over a year.
Are we in shape? Not just our body—are your words in shape? We will be hybrid: some in person, some still in the zoomiverse.
To get in shape to talk to people, think about this:
1. Why do you want to talk to them? Grow your business? Meet potential customers, clients, business partners? Make new friends?
2. Who do you want to meet, and where do you need to show up to meet them? Do you need an impactful intro for meetings?
3. What can you do to prepare? I know—work with me, your speaker coach. Let’s punch up your personal pitch, or get you ready for your legacy TED Talk.
For the past few months, I’ve been telling you my video course is coming. I know. I checked these monthly mailings. I’ve written, “it’s coming soon”—3 times.
I’ve written “almost ready to go”—once.
Have I been building anticipation? Not deliberately. The wait is almost over. I have been fine tuning. And it’s worth the wait. Watch for Mimi’s Momentum in May. Finally.
