THE MAGIC THREE:<\/p>\n

Say what?!?
\nBlood, sweat and tears.
\nReady, steady, go.
\nLights, camera, action.<\/p>\n

See what I just did?<\/p>\n

I used the power of 3.
\nThat seems to be the sweet spot when it comes to storytelling, giving examples, and writing in English. (See? I just used it there. Again.)<\/p>\n

As an English coach, I work with my clients on their storytelling and presentation skills. I show them how, in English, 3 seems to be the sweet spot when it comes to storytelling. For some reason, 2 doesn\u2019t have the same weight, and 4 is overkill. So here\u2019s my pro tip for the day when you are designing your talk, start identifying where you can naturally use 3 phrases, or examples, to add value to what you are saying. This is what native speakers do all the time, and now it\u2019s time for you to make this a natural part of your communication toolbox. So\u2026.ready, steady, go!\u00a0\u00a0(Yes, again.)<\/p>\n

If you\u2019d like to work with me on honing your presentation skills, I have 2 spots left for my Great in 8 Communication Coaching program<\/a>. This is where I work with 6 individuals who are highly motivated to level up and transform their English skills. It\u2019s 8 weeks of personal and group coaching, and an exclusive Presentation Day where you will network and show what you have been working on by presenting for the group.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We start in March, and I only offer this exclusive program twice a year.
\n2 spots left \u2013 is one of them yours? Click HIER<\/a> to find out more!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Have a great week!
