Join Coach Keren for a conversation with Lydia Fenet that will raise your public speaking game. Lydia is the Lead Benefit Auctioneer at Christie’s Auction House, she’s a keynote speaker represented by CAA and she is the author of the fantastic book, ‘The Most Powerful Woman in the Room is You’ which was published by Simon & Schuster and was optioned for TV/Film by New Form Entertainment in February 2020. This talk, between two professional speakers, is about just that: the business of speaking. If you have always wanted to speak clearly and coherently and mesmerize the room, if the thought of talking coherently in front of a group is nerve-racking, or even when you just want to brilliantly be able to give a toast in front of family or the next time you have to present to your team at work – you will learn how to be at ease, be prepared, and wow the crowd.  

In This Episode:

  • [04:05] There is no such thing as being naturally good at public speaking. Here’s what there is instead.  
  • [07:00] Lydia Fenet’s main tips for really delivering a phenomenal talk.
  • [16:00] How to master and even use your adrenaline to as an asset for your performance. 
  • [20:50] The key to delivering a great talk: storytelling, and how to do it right. 
  • [25:45] The magic of rehearsal and practice and how you will become a master at speaking.   

Key Takeaways:

  • If you’re nervous about public speaking, don’t be afraid to share and be vulnerable. Audiences love authenticity and everyone wants to see you succeed. 
  • Mistakes will happen; use them by working them into your talk instead of being afraid of them.
  • Channel the adrenaline that you get when you walk out on stage - the adrenaline is serving you. 
  • The best way to get out ahead of a great talk? Know your first lines cold. That way, you can get onto the stage in a relative state of control.
