261. Catch curveballs with confidence

from That Voice Podcast · host Sally Prosser

What do you do when things don’t go to plan on stage? A tech glitch, a wardrobe mishap, a tiny audience when you expected a full house? This week, I’m fresh from 4 speaking gigs in 4 days — and let’s just say, the curveballs came flying! In this episode, I’m taking you behind the scenes to share 5 real-life moments that didn’t go as expected and exactly how I handled them. You’ll hear: 💡 How to adapt when your audience isn’t what you expected 💡 Why a wardrobe “malfunction” can actually work in your favour 💡 The best way to hold your presence through tech issues 💡 What to do when you miss a cue or forget a part of your talk 💡 How to turn a chaotic speaking environment into deep connection Because here’s the truth: no speaking gig ever goes exactly to plan. That’s why we prepare in the masculine — with content, notes, practice and briefing calls — but deliver in the feminine: flowing, adapting, and connecting in the moment. The show must go on. And with the right skills, confidence, and mindset, every curveball becomes a chance to shine even brighter. 🎁 Special offers & invitations: Pre-order VOICEPRINT and send me your receipt so I can gift you the preorder bonuses (a voice note of me reading the first chapter + exclusive ticket link to the Brisbane book launch party on Dec 7th 🎉). PRE ORDER HERE  Join Soul Speakers: My signature group program where you’ll learn to apply these steps and truly own your voice.
