I have found that when I am speaking about a big project that is meaningful to me, doing the things you mention here is easier. Even if it is just including a big project you care about as an example.
People can tell when you really care about your subject.
On "deliberate speaking improves impact" - YES. It's not about how many words you say or big words you insert, but the impact your sentence has. I have found that sometimes less is more to your audience.
Yes this was amazing! For the past month, I have been truly focusing on the way that I speak and the way others perceive me with my business. And the other day I was working on slowing down my speech so that I am intentional with my words and being mindful of the inflection in my voice so that my intention is received and digested well. And I have also been working on my eye contact with the audience. I recently did a podcast and it was filmed on camera and I really paid attention to the way that I spoke. This particular article really provided me with other ways to improve my public speaking. Lately I have also been doing a lot of meditation and grounding, which has been affected my speech so I love the fact that you mentioned that.

I know, Scott. Somehow our passion shines through when we do something we love
I have recently seen a definition of love as giving your whole self to something.
I like that!
I wish I was better at speech skills, it's so important!
It is for sure

Imdeed, Colette, it is very powerful when you can control the way you speak
