Manage episode 402070557 series 2780473
What does it mean to be a natural at speaking? Or is that the wrong question, because being a natural at speaking is a load of crap?
Speaking can be taught, speaking can be learned, and we have to learn it somewhere. So when you see someone that is up on stage, so effortlessly sharing their story, or it seems like they have all the confidence in the world, you know what? They have had insecurities before. That happens with anything. If we work at it, we mess up.
Our guest today is Rachel DeAlto, and seems like someone who can be so effortless on stage. But that’s not the reality.
