I missed my calling to audition for the CIA.⁣⁣

I missed my calling to audition for the CIA.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I have this uncanny ability to recognize faces.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
If we haven't met yet, I'm Hannah 👋 ⁣⁣
I'm a presentation coach in Portland, OR⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Here's a little about me, and a calling I missed:⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I remember faces.⁣⁣
🧑‍🦲I remember significant faces I’ve met.⁣⁣
👃🏻 Every single client's face.⁣⁣
👁 Teachers from 25 years ago⁣⁣
👂 My parent’s friends⁣⁣
👄 Friends of friends⁣⁣
🦷Old coffee shop baristas⁣⁣
⁣⁣
You can dye your hair + wear a mask -⁣⁣
I'll STILL recognize you 👀 ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I call it my facial recognition software.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Here's the best part:⁣⁣
While I remember faces,⁣⁣
My own face 👩 blends into the masses.⁣⁣
➡️ LME (Let Me Explain): ⬇️⁣⁣
⁣⁣
It happened yesterday with a mask on my face.⁣⁣
Someone I didn't know (facial recognition software told me so) said, "you're a regular here, right? I know you!"⁣⁣
⁣⁣
He didn't know me, we'd never met.⁣⁣
I know this for a fact.⁣⁣
How do I know?⁣⁣
My facial recognition software.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
The CIA could really use me in the field.⁣⁣
I'd scout for bad guys with just my 👀 ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
❓What calling did you miss?⁣⁣
❓In another life, who would you be? ⁣⁣
❓What would you do?⁣⁣

It’s the worst: Your stomach feels like you ate

It’s the worst: Your stomach feels like you ate curdled milk. Why? You just got asked to speak in a meeting. ⁣
⁣
You have no notes and no speech prepared.⁣
⁣
You’re being asked to give an impromptu speech.⁣

Especially if you haven’t practiced.⁣
⁣
But when and how can you practice without risking:⁣
➡️A client ⁣
➡️Your job⁣
➡️A promotion⁣
➡️How your manager or peer see you⁣
➡️A raise⁣
➡️Or even your reputation?⁣
⁣
Look no further:⁣

What does every movie trailer 🎥 have in common

What does every movie trailer 🎥 have in common with your presentations?⁣
⁣
All movie trailers 💥IMMEDIATELY💥 hook your attention. ⁣
⁣
How do movie trailers suck you in?⁣
🎥 James Earl Jones does a dramatic voice over⁣
🎥 Intense music + quick scene changes⁣
🎥 Minions babbling, giggling, and jabbing each other⁣
🎥 A fight sequence⁣
🎥 Nostalgic tunes⁣
🎥 Spark your curiosity: What’s happening?⁣
⁣
Movie trailer-makers know they have about 30-seconds to engage you: Get your heart pumping, your mind invested in the action, and ready to turn to whoever is next to you and say “I want to see more! I’m definitely going to see that when it comes out.”⁣
⁣
You want your audience thinking, “I want to hear more!”⁣
⁣
Movie trailers are a MUST⁣
(name a movie that doesn’t have a trailer)⁣
Most importantly, they’re 💰money-makers💰 ⁣
⁣
Your opening to your presentation is a MUST⁣
➡️It’s your money-maker. Your why to buy.⁣
Essssspecially in a virtual environment.⁣
⁣
Your opening sets the tone for your entire presentation.⁣
It tells your audience in under 7 seconds if they should keep listening (or not).⁣
Let’s make sure your opening is working for you!⁣
⁣
Your movie-trailer opening has four key elements:⁣
⁣
🎥 1 💥Grabs your audience’s attention💥⁣
🎥 2 Establishes credibility/expertise⁣
🎥 3 Relates to your audience⁣
🎥 4 Previews your main points⁣
⁣

I have always loved costumes. I even considered getting a masters in costume design.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
For as long as I can remember, I've dabbled with fabrics, fibers, and fantastical wigs. Whether I was going to JOANN Fabric and Crafts™️ in middle school to collect remnants/fat quilting squares or buying $5.99 cotton crew neck t-shirts with friends at Michaels to adorn with puff paint, I've been interested in creating clothing and looks.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
I've kept this part of me relatively hidden.⁣⁣⁣
Family and friends know I enjoy the finer things in life (#wigs) and that I'll go full out on a Halloween costume, but I assumed sharing this side of me would hurt my professional life.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
In corporate America,⁣⁣⁣
➡️I worried that my hot pink blazer was "too loud."⁣⁣⁣
In corporate America,⁣⁣⁣
➡️I worried that my glorious 20 inch hair extensions would be seen as "weird" when all I've ever wanted is long, thick mermaid hair (and these extensions make me feel like a modern day Ariel).⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
What would people think if they knew I like costumes, fabric, yarn, wigs, mimicking voices, makeup, and acting (I've created characters since I was 9- or 10-years-old)?⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
It's taken 3 decades, but I run my own show now.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
Facts: Costumes, clothing, styling, backgrounds, facial expressions, tone of voice, rate of speed, and how you look play major parts in how you + the information you present are perceived. Not to mention the fact that your audiences judges 1/3 of your credibility based on how you look.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
My costumes, wigs, and creative side aren't going anywhere.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
They serve me in my work, and they bring me happiness.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
Voila, your guide to my costumes throughout the years:⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
1.) Cleopatra, 5th grade (need to reprise her).⁣⁣⁣
2.) My Bachelorette Party.⁣⁣⁣
3.) A loofah, 2017.⁣⁣⁣
4.) Adult Prom.⁣⁣⁣
5.) Wonder Woman photo shoot.⁣⁣⁣
6.) A bonafide German, Oktoberfest dirndl. ⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
Be you, and your people will come. ⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
I love costumes, and I'm never backing away from that love or that fact.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
If you're a costume-junkie like me, tell me about your favorite(s)!⁣⁣⁣

Scenario: [YOUR NAME] why don't you share what you

Scenario: [YOUR NAME] why don't you share what you've been working on?⁣⁣
⁣⁣
You: Full-blown panic 🤯
⁣⁣
Symptoms:⁣⁣
➡️Sweating palms and pits⁣⁣
➡️Dry mouth; your saliva decided now was a good time to hide⁣⁣
➡️Your stomach is the boat on Deadliest Catch⁣⁣
➡️All logical thought has left⁣⁣
➡️You've forgotten your own name⁣⁣
⁣⁣
When you do collect yourself enough to start speaking, you're tongue-tied. 😰⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Your words come out interspersed with the non-word "um" which you mentally kick yourself for saying, but to compensate you use the dreaded combination of "and then" like it's going out of style. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
You feel disorganized, discombobulated, and overall out of sorts.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
You're being asked to give what's called an impromptu speech.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
This post covers three ways to practice impromptu speaking to build your comfort level, confidence, and clarity of thoughts. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Being able to answer questions, provide commentary, and speak off-the-cuff isn't easy, but hope is not lost! With practice, coaching, and constructive feedback, you can see improvements weekly.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
DM me the word "impromptu" to set up an introductory session. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
We'll talk about your work, your presentations, and ways to improve your impromptu speaking style.⁣⁣

🥓 What's your bacon number? 🥓⁣ ⁣ Yes, th

🥓 What's your bacon number? 🥓⁣
⁣
Yes, that's right, how many degrees of separation do you have to Kevin Bacon?⁣
⁣
Think about celebrities you've seen in concert:⁣
✔️ Cher⁣
✔️ Dolly Parton⁣
✔️ Tom Jones ⁣
✔️ Maroon 5 (#songsaboutJane)⁣
✔️ The Village People⁣
✔️ The Backstreet Boys (#BSBforever)⁣
✔️ Norah Jones⁣
⁣
Random sightings:⁣
Steven Tyler in DisneyLand⁣
Rode in an elevator with Ben Affleck.⁣
Tom Hanks in England.⁣
⁣
Now, google your celebrity's bacon number. ⁣
Seriously, do it.⁣
That's how many degrees of separation said celebrity has to Kevin Bacon. ⁣
Add one number for yourself because you've seen this celebrity.⁣
⁣
Voila, your Bacon Number.⁣
⁣
➡️ 🥓 What the heck does this have to do with presentations and public speaking?⁣
⁣
My opening line🥓 and subsequent post got your attention, right?⁣
⁣
➡️ That's the goal of your presentation opening: to hook your audience's attention.⁣
It's also called an attention grabber.⁣
⁣
Your audience decides in the first 7-10 seconds of your presentation if they should listen to what you have to say. If you don't grab their attention, some studies say you've lost it for the duration of your presentation 😬.⁣
⁣
🥓= Audience Attention = Your presentation currency.⁣
⁣
Grab your audience's attention. ⁣
Present like a rockstar.⁣
Eat bacon 🥓⁣
⁣
Interested in a guide on how to start your presentations so you're always grabbing and holding your audience's attention?⁣

Did you know I talk to myself before I present? “Hannah, you know your shit. Knock ‘em dead. Give them everything you’ve got.”⠀
⠀
When I was fifteen, my tennis coach gave me a laminated card. It had a paragraph of positive mantras listed like “I am a she-beast” and “I am better today than I was yesterday.” I didn’t fully understand the point of it at the time, but I still kept it because I trusted my coach.⠀
⠀
It traveled with me to college.⠀
Survived 7+ moves.⠀
And now sits in a place of great esteem: ⠀
My #IKEA desk drawer.⠀
(I mean it! This She-Beast bought and paid for said IKEA furniture with her - my - business.)⠀
⠀
My tennis coach had it right:⠀
💥 You are your thoughts.⠀
⠀
💭 You’re the thoughts you’re told and accept.⠀
💭 You’re the thoughts you believe.⠀
💭 You’re the thoughts you choose for yourself.⠀
⠀
When you change your thoughts:⠀
You change your beliefs⠀
You change your actions⠀
You change your routines⠀
You see yourself differently.⠀
You feel confident.⠀
You change your world.⠀
⠀
💥 You are your thoughts.⠀
⠀
Let’s make them positive, together.⠀
⠀
Repeat these phrases to yourself before your next presentation:⠀
➡️ I can do this.⠀
➡️ I know my sh!t. (say the s word. It feels good.)⠀
➡️ I’m going to give my audience everything I’ve got.⠀
➡️ I’m going to teach them all that I know.⠀
➡️ They’ve never heard my perspective.⠀
➡️ I’ve got this.⠀
➡️ I’m ready.⠀
➡️ I CAN do this.⠀
⠀
Start talking to yourself. Take it from a professional. I do it, I stand by it, and I’ve seen the changes in my world thanks to new thoughts, beliefs, and actions.⠀
⠀
I’ve seen the changes in my clients when they change their thoughts. I already believe in you.⠀
⠀
You’re capable of greatness and magic.⠀
⠀
Ready to see the magic in yourself? ⠀
Be your own secret weapon?⠀
⠀
Send me DM and we’ll set up time to chat.⠀
