Episode 306: Develop Your Voice of Impact: Part 3 with Krista Donargo, SGA

This episode is Part 3 of our special Develop Your Voice of Impact series, and it's all about what happens when the stakes are high and the spotlight is on. In this conversation, Krista Donargo, SGA, dives into the difference between recorded content and live communication, and why so many brilliant leaders lose their power when they step on stage, lead a training, or answer questions in real time. From keynotes and panels to team trainings and high-pressure conversations, this episode breaks down what it really takes to speak with confidence, presence, and authority when things don't go exactly as planned. She covers why over-rehearsing can backfire, how to stop hiding behind notes, and what to do when tech fails, nerves spike, or the room's energy feels off. You'll learn how to use pattern interrupts to keep people engaged, how to handle tough or impromptu questions without rambling, and why silence is often more powerful than filling space with words. If you want to command a room, sound grounded under pressure, and communicate in a way that feels both confident and human, this episode is for you.
