The Group Rules
Anyone have any to add? 1. Don't be a jerk or gratuitously mean. 2. No self promotion 3. Don't use chatGPT (I'm looking at you, Dom!) 4. Be open to learning. I don't know everything, but neither do you. And this is my wheelhouse. 5. No engagement farming: Empty content to boost posts and get likes 6. Be positive. Constructive feedback is encouraged and welcomed--just do it with tact and some sensitivity. 7. Come prepared to work the craft! 8. Please ask questions and ask for feedback. That's why I created this group!

Power in Stillness
The art of stillness in communication, especially on camera, is like discovering a cheat code in the game of life. When everyone else online is waving their hands around like they're trying to dry nail polish, stillness is your superpower. Stillness isn't just about not moving physically; it's more a calm presence that draws your audience in and commands attention. When you're still, you're not just another talking head; you act as a lightning rod, drawing in focus amid the viewer's chaos. Stillness exudes confidence. It tells your audience, "I am so sure of what I'm saying, I don't need to dance for your attention." If you've ever had a conversation with someone who can sit in silence without awkwardness, you know what I'm saying. This is particularly potent on camera where every twitch can be magnified. Stillness allows for emphasis. When you move, it should be with purpose. A lean forward, a subtle hand gesture become signals rather than noise. Next time you're on camera, try being the Mona Lisa of speakers. "When you talk about...struggles, do it with the calm of a still lake. Let the depth of your stillness show the depth of your journey." ~Grim Hustle, attributed

What Pamela Found that I could not see
When I first met Pamela, she commented on how comfortable and confident I was speaking in public. I appreciated the compliment, but I knew that something was missing. I followed up and hired her as my coach and in the very first session, I got my money's worth. She taught me the "ONE THING" that has impacted my ability to take what I'm passionate about and turn that into content that I'm proud to produce. Plus, when I get "in my head" about what I'm doing... I stop and remember that one bit of coaching... and BOOM... I'm back in action. Thanks so much @Pamela DeRitis for your "wise eye" and keen instincts to find what is missing and deliver the punch.
