This month, we're discussing Storytelling as an influential tool.

People tend to remember a story long after they forget the data. A great message may inform, but a great story can help people feel the message.

We discuss a few specific areas:

1. Why stories influence better than information alone
2. Where we see stories show up, and why they work
3. Some common mistakes people make with their stories

Storytelling can be an effective tool in so many areas; you just need to know how to tell the right story.

This month, we're talking about eye contact.

We've all heard we should look at people as we speak, but what exactly does that mean? How long do we look at them? How do we move when there are multiple people to look at? If it feels awkward to the speaker, does it come across awkward to the listener? All great questions.

Here's what we unpack:

1. Why eye contact matters
2. What does your eye contact communicate
3. How to vary it based on the setting/situation
4. When and how to practice it

We're talking communication anxiety this month.

1. Common causes of communication anxiety
2. What it can look and feel like to the speaker and audience
3. Ways to manage the feeling in the moment
4. Some long-term approaches to alleviating nerves
