In this episode, the microphone gets turned around.
Normally I’m interviewing the workshop leaders for the upcoming Toastmasters District 59 Conference in Metz, France, but this time fellow presenter Arjan Gerritson interviews me about my own workshop.
Yes… I’ll be speaking live and on stage in Metz at an international conference.
And here’s the fun twist: the workshop will even be delivered in Dutch.
The topic?
YouTube for Speakers.
But the surprising part is that this workshop isn’t really about YouTube.
It’s about confidence.
It’s about practice.
And it’s about using video as one of the most powerful mirrors a speaker can have.
In this conversation we talk about:
? What it’s like to prepare for speaking on an international stage
?? Why I’ll be presenting this workshop in Dutch
? How YouTube can become one of the best tools for improving your speaking
? The 15-second video challenge that builds confidence quickly
? Why watching yourself on camera is uncomfortable… and incredibly useful
If you’ve ever wanted to improve your speaking, build confidence, or share your ideas more clearly, this episode might give you a surprising new tool.
And it starts with something very simple:
