Authenticity is a word that gets tossed around A LOT these days. Here's the thing: If you are using someone else's material or teachings, or using words and phrasing that is 'pretty close' to what someone else is currently using, it can be a very slippery slope...and that's EXACTLY what I was doing! Not knowing I was infringing on someone else's hard work. So I talk about what those signs are, and the steps I took to fix them.
Here is a link to my coach, Steve Lowell, who shared with me this revelation. Check out his work...he's helped several people around the world with speaking, sales and leadership:

In my career as a broadcaster, podcaster and speaker I've been blessed with the opportunity to have some amazing conversations with some very skilled and worldly individuals. They've all shared their stories, their passions, and how they're making changes to leave behind a legacy. Today's guest is no exception. Eddie Rice has been speaking and helping people with their speeches for ages! One thing that I liked about our conversation was we both agreed that, presentations and speeches are more than just a memorized talk: there's a deeper internalization needed, if you really want to connect and cement your ideas with the audience!
Eddie is a professional speechwriter with over 10 years of experience in helping business leaders, keynote speakers, TED talk presenters, and everyday people, enhance the messages they tell through great storytelling and structure. He started out as an 8th grade science teacher but turned his love of rhetoric into a profitable freelance career. He also made the transition from freelancer to fully employed.
As a speechwriter, he has worked with CEOs, college presidents and trustees, superintendents and principals, business owners, authors, politicians, organization leaders, nonprofit executive directors, and everyone in between. Public speaking and speechwriting are equalizers: we all want to say just the right words whether it's small groups or large audiences.

First off, I'd be remiss if I didn't thank my team. When this podcast launched back in 2019, I wasn't sure where it would take me. So, I, Carl Richards thank them for their support. I also thank YOU for being along on the journey. I'm so excited for where this show is going to go in 2023 and beyond! And with that in mind,
You know, it's very cool to FINALLY be full time in my business. I get to choose the clients I work with, set my own hours, take holidays when I want. The freedom and flexibility is stellar! I'm blessed to have had some amazing conversations with people on this show, and even on Zoom calls that have lead to collaborations and even clients. It would be remiss of me NOT to invite you on that journey too.
So in this episode I'm asking the question: Are you my ideal client? This isn't just about me....it's about you too! You may be asking yourself or your prospects similar questions, or embarking on similar discoveries as you move forward. So,
Give a listen, because you and I could be destined to work together. And if we are by the way, after listening to this episode click this link and we can chat further. I thank you in advance.

Have you ever noticed how some speakers hit the mark every single time, while others struggle to make a point and gain the trust of their audience? Ever wondered why that is?
So much of what we do in the speaking world is share our ideas, thoughts, feelings. What we sometimes fail to share clearly is our stories. We water them down by leaving parts out, or just simply skim over and expect people to fill in the blanks. It would be like looking at just the outline of a masterpiece like the Mona Lisa; it doesn't have the same effect as the detailed brush strokes.
Over the next five episodes Carl Richards will share in detail some ways you can enhance your speaking by telling stories. Not just any stories, YOUR stories! He'll give examples of everyday experiences you could encounter while on a business trip or vacation. Part one today is all about People! Here are the pro-tips:
#1 Give a name (Don't know it, make one up!) #2 Cite a real situation (needs to be believable!) #3 Give a 'why'
Listen to the episode to fill in the blanks and get more detail.

In today's episode we continue the Cuban journey. And the story telling journey. It's all about History. There are rich histories and cultures everywhere we look. How are we bringing those histories to the forefront of our imaginations and bringing them to life?
The writer Ernest Hemingway lived just outside of Havana for a period of time. We also visited two restaurants there (two of his favourites). Both are still in operation and both still serve some of his favourite dishes. Here are todays pro-tips:

'I just got back from a trip to Cuba!' There has to be a few stories there, for sure! Unfortunately sometimes stories get lost. Either we aren't sure how to tell them, we're not confident or we simply don't think people care. Truth is stories matter...A LOT! In this five part series we're covering off some ideas for how to share those stories. Last time we identified how history is a crucial element to include. It can be recent past or distant past. As long as you make clear what, when, and even the where. That's part of painting the picture. Some key key take aways were:
#1 Paint the picture (describe what you see) #2 Give examples #3 Share a timeline
In today's episode we continue the Cuban journey. And the story telling journey. It's all about Geography. Like history, places you visit or journeys you embark on have deep meaning. How are we paint the scenery is even more important than when we share the history.
Here are todays pro-tips:
#1 Describe in detail (colour, texture, touch, smell) #2 Where is it (be specific, name a place) #3 Who's with you (give them a name, make them part of the story)

In this five part series we're covering off some ideas for how to share those stories. Last time we identified how geography can have deep meaning, but to have impact we need to paint the picture with clear brush strokes to set the scene. Some key key take aways were:
#1 Describe in detail (colour, texture, touch, smell) #2 Where is it (be specific, name a place) #3 Who's with you (give them a name, make them part of the story)
In today's episode we continue the Cuban journey. Many people who visit this particular locale, belly ache about the food. Sometimes though the food gets rave reviews. There are many contributing factors, so today we dive into how to bring life and flavour to the story about food in general in your stories. Food can tell many stories, about wealth, culture, and yes, geography too. Oh, and, for the record, it doesn't always have to be about a specific flavour or appeal. Food can play a descriptive role in the story's narrative.
Here are todays pro-tips:
#1 Draw a parallel/comparison to make it relatable #2 Look for humour (my partner who hates seafood was horrified as my shrimp looked at him the entire meal!) #3 Go for 'shock factor' but keep it positive (terrified of bees, I stuck my hand right in the hive...and, as the local farmer had said, not one sting.)

Either we aren't sure how to tell them, we're not confident or we simply don't think people care. Truth is stories matter...A LOT! In this five part series we're covering off some ideas for how to share those stories. Last time we identified how food can shape a story. We all have likes and dislikes, and therefore opinions in this area, so we need to keep it relatable. Some key key take aways were:
#1 Draw a parallel/comparison to make it relatable #2 Look for humour (my partner who hates seafood was horrified as my shrimp looked at him the entire meal!) #3 Go for 'shock factor' but keep it positive (terrified of bees, I stuck my hand right in the hive...and, as the local farmer had said, not one sting.)
In today's episode we continue the Cuban journey. When we visit new places we look for new experiences. All too often we just skim over what we did. Maybe we don't think folks will want detail. It's been drilled down in our minds to keep it short. Truth is you can still keep it short, while giving the goods. Your audience needs enough information in order to relate to you, and build up that know, like and trust factor.
Here are todays pro-tips:
#1 Include the 5W's and 1H (When, Where, What, Who, Why & How) #2 Tap into emotion. How did this experience make you feel, and why? #3 Ideally, make sure it's YOUR story so people can create more of the KL&T factor with YOU!

Are you telling the story that needs to be told? A lot of speakers DON'T! When I started my speaking journey I would share how I used to stutter when I was a kid.

Speeches and presentations should be about stories, as well as tactics behind your overall messaging.

When it comes to sharing your story, it's not just about the art. It's not just about sharing the right story. These are two important pieces.

Carls' guest today has years of experience in business and in speaking and shares his journey and how the power of story can have massive impact on your business!

In the very first episode of Speaking of Speaking Carl Richards revealed that speaking was his biggest fear as a kid. He actually stuttered. After two years of speech therapy (from age 12-14) Carl overcame the fear and started to manage the fear of speaking at the same time.
In this episode Carl and his guest revisit some of the concepts from that very first episode and reveal that, YES! You can navigate through the fear of speaking, and the best way to do that is to get up and speak (often!)

Have you ever wondered how two distinct podcasting paths can converge into one electrifying journey? That's exactly what Jeff Dwoskin and I tackle, sharing a laugh or two while dissecting the DNA of our podcasting adventures. With candid tales from the trenches of digital strategy and marketing, Jeff illuminates wisdom only a true connoisseur of conversation could provide. We reveal the gritty reality of podcast perseverance, likening it to the endurance needed to pen a novel, and the sheer determination to overcome the dreaded 'pod fade.'
Reaching out to high-profile guests often feels like throwing a message in a bottle into a sea of uncertainty, doesn't it? Jeff and I swap stories of those nail-biting moments, from the sting of rejection to the thrill of an unexpected "yes" that turns the tide in our favour. We peel back the curtain on the art of networking and the golden rule of persistence, embodying the spirit of independent podcasters who bravely stand their ground amid the glitz of celebrity-backed shows. It's a reminder that every 'no' has a silver lining, potentially paving the way to a future 'yes.'
Then there's that moment when you realize your content is being drowned out by the din of social media trivialities—an experience shared among creators, including myself in my 20-year comedic venture. That's why we introduce Stampede Social, the game-changer for podcasters seeking to amplify their Instagram presence. As we draw this auditory escapade to a close, our hearts are full of gratitude for the listeners and the behind-the-scenes maestros who keep our podcast wheels turning. We're eager for you to join the ongoing conversation, share your thoughts, and become a part of this ever-expanding podcasting community.

Banish that belief as Tony Gyenis, a spirit coach and Tuning Fork master teacher, joins us to reveal the secrets that allowed him to weave his expertise in Feng Shui and Soma Energetics into a podcast that fits into his bustling life. Tony's story of crafting the perfect podcast episode—a harmonious blend of his professional knowledge and personal commitments—is an inspiration to anyone feeling the crunch of the clock.

If you want to learn anything these days you can just 'Google that.' Everything from how to bake a cake to what ailment you have. The challenge is there is a lot of misinformation being shared out there, and not just on the worldwide web. Some well meaning yet misguided business coaches, agencies, even places of higher education are sharing the WRONG INFORMATION when it comes to navigating the podcasting space.
When I first launched the Speaking of Speaking podcast, my mission was simple: help others overcome their fear of public speaking. But as my journey unfolded, I found the conversation naturally broadening to encompass the vast landscape of communication strategies. In the heart of this episode, I peel back the layers of podcasting purpose, sharing how a strong 'why' is the bedrock of any show. It's a tale of transformation, from my initial focus on tackling speaking anxiety to the rich discussions on communication that now define the podcast. I'll walk you through the importance of aligning your podcast's mission with your personal evolution and how that resonance is felt by every listener tuning in.
Wrapping up, we open the floor to you, our community, inviting your voice into the mix. Whether it's through comments, reviews, or guest suggestions, each interaction weaves you into the fabric of our growing network. And for those ready to step behind the mic themselves, consider this an open call to join the conversation that extends beyond these episodes—because podcasting isn't just about reaching the earbuds of the world, it's about creating a dialogue that bridges over 3 million passionate voices. Stay tuned for the next instalment where we continue to exchange ideas and insights, moving the needle on what it means to truly connect.

Ever wondered how a quarantine hobby could evolve into an engaging podcast with a unique twist? Meet Camille, our creative guest whose initial spark led to a thriving podcasting journey where costumes add flair and fun to serious discussions on the emotional side of money. Camille shares her inspiring story that began with a spontaneous social media post, leading to a flood of interest and a solid start with numerous episodes. This episode celebrates the beauty of creativity and spontaneity in podcasting, showcasing how Camille turned a niche topic into an accessible, entertaining experience.
Bringing a playful angle to professional settings, we debate the role of costumes in modern business environments. Whether it's during virtual networking or podcast sessions, donning a costume can set you apart in a world leaning towards casual wear over traditional suits. As an optimization coach, I reveal my own journey of using costumes to make interactions memorable and discuss how systemization can streamline podcast production. The balance between creativity and structure is a key takeaway, offering insights into maintaining enthusiasm while managing the complexities of podcasting.
Transitioning from guest-focused episodes to productive solo content is another exciting chapter in this podcasting narrative. Camille and I explore the strategic benefits of solo episodes, where personal stories and expertise shine, increasing productivity and listener engagement. With practical tips on audience understanding, podcast strategy, and realistic monetization goals, this episode is a treasure trove for both seasoned podcasters and newcomers. Join us for a candid discussion filled with humor, insights, and a touch of entrepreneurial spirit, as we navigate the world of podcasting and personal expression.
