It was a fantastic evening last night where I presented on favorite tips and mindsets for preparing persuasive speeches. This was my first time to present to a great membership forum here in Washington, DC — the Fabulous Women Biz Owners founded by Sarah Massey.

This was such a rejuvenating night — great, tenacious folks.

Here’s 13 minutes from my talk that includes:

a 4-prong approach to preparing persuasive presentations plus using vocal flexibility and understanding the impact of silence.

I co-hosted the workshop with the fantastic Jessica Solomon, founder of Spark Creativity. She led a segment on creating an authentic elevator pitch (or what she calls ‘cocktail line’) with some really reflective, thought provoking recommendations.

Here’s her 23 minute clip:
