Ep 260: Speaking with Impact and Authenticity with Cat Matson
Manage episode 413042488 series 2789941
I’m thrilled to be joined today by Cat Matson, founder and CEO of Impactful Presenters. But just hang on one sec! If you read the word ‘presenters’ and thought ‘this might not be for me’, think again. In our chat, Cat shares with us the importance of authentic self-expression in various contexts - including our personal interactions with partners, friends, family, children and colleagues. So no, you don’t have to be a traditional presenter to get a heap of inspiration from this episode.
In our chat you’ll hear:
- Cat’s thoughts on what it means to make an impact, and how we know when we’re achieving that goal
- What it means to ‘frame up’ a position that can truly be received by another
- The role of self-kindness in communication
- The keys to authenticity (and why that overused word isn’t nearly so cringy as you might think)
- How we navigate fear and vulnerability in communication
- And so much more.

Cat Matson is the CEO and Lead Facilitator of Impactful Presenters, empowering business owners and community leaders to speak with confidence, authority, authenticity and impact. A popular and accomplished Speaker, MC and Moderator, Cat is known for her straight-talking, 'realness' and extracting 'the juice' from her clients.
Cat describes herself as a 'Mistress-of-all-Trades' having worked in both the private and public sectors, in small and large business and in virtually every industry.
