Do people often tune out while you're still talking? Do they laugh even when you didn’t make a joke, and you’d actually asked them a question?

As founders, we are the face of our business. And yet, when it’s time to show up on camera for an IG story, TikTok, podcast, or new launch… Oh hell no. We avoid it like the plague. Or we try, but don’t know where to start, so we hesitate or ramble. We use ChatGPT to script our videos, even though we know we can detect AI scripting from 100 miles away… It takes two hours, 57 takes, and three breakdowns only to end up with a video that still feels cringe. It doesn’t feel right, and we don’t even end up posting it. This episode is for you if you are ready to show up and speak with ease, confidence, and power when speaking to the camera. Let's go!
