Not Your Granddaddy's Speaking Show: The Journey Begins
10/01/24 • 45 min
Welcome to the very first episode of the Soulful Speaking Podcast!
Forget the nerve-wracking, industrial methods you’ve been taught; it’s time to embrace a more authentic, creative, and soulful way of sharing your voice with the world.
In this episode, Lauri dives deep into her personal journey and passion for transforming the speaking landscape. From a young child finding solace in storytelling to a seasoned speaker and coach, Lauri shares how speaking is more than just a necessary skill—it's a spiritual path.
She challenges the outdated notion of “industrial speaking,” which molds speakers into a one-size-fits-all template, and instead, invites you to explore a soulful, authentic, and transformative approach to sharing your voice with the world. Whether you're a reluctant leader or a seasoned speaker, this episode will inspire you to embrace your unique magic and step into your full power.
Tune in and learn how to set yourself free from outdated, rigid speaking styles and embrace your one-of-a-kind way.
TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE:
1. Speaking is more than just a necessary skill—it's a spiritual teacher.
(just like money, relationships and health.)
2. The universe brings us soulful speaking fire that fuels our transformation, burning away everything that is not our true selves.
3. If those “industrial” speaking programs have failed you, it's not you, it's them.
4. Some people have managed to maintain their natural radiance in the industrial speaking world, but that’s in spite of those programs, not because of them.
5. Presence begins where primal and purpose meet.
6. Outdated leader-speakers are not what the world needs now. You are.
7. We are the ones we have been waiting for.
8. Every sound that we make, every word that we say, every silence that we choose is a chance for us to honor our soul's purpose.
9. Being seen begins with a choice. A choice to make our calling more important than our fear.
