What’s the magic number when it comes to storytelling?

THE MAGIC THREE:

Say what?!?
Blood, sweat and tears.
Ready, steady, go.
Lights, camera, action.

See what I just did?

I used the power of 3.
That seems to be the sweet spot when it comes to storytelling, giving examples, and writing in English. (See? I just used it there. Again.)

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’t have the same weight, and 4 is overkill. So here’s 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’s time for you to make this a natural part of your communication toolbox. So….ready, steady, go!  (Yes, again.)

If you’d like to work with me on honing your presentation skills, I have 2 spots left for my Great in 8 Communication Coaching program. This is where I work with 6 individuals who are highly motivated to level up and transform their English skills. It’s 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.

We start in March, and I only offer this exclusive program twice a year.

Have a great week!
