 And I used to feel comfortable being myself when I was speaking because I was afraid that being myself would get me in trouble, and it did. So I dialed down my real personality, I edited my sense of humour, I didn't really speak my heart and mind on things, not knowing that this prohibited me from having genuine connection with people, which is the Holy Grail of all communication. I'm coming to Washington DC and Dallas in September, and I'm going to be speaking at my new live event called The Seven Levels of Authentic Communication, and I want to help you to not do what I did and to show you the huge upsides and advantage and gain for you and your listeners when you speak from the heart as your authentic self. Come, let's have a couple hours together. I'll see you guys in September. Link in the bio. Cheers!
