The number one question people ask me is, "Jenn, how did you start speaking?" Today's episode is gonna be about how my speaking journey began. My hope is that you'll hear some insights there that will help you begin your own speaking journey. From being bullied at schoolTo emergency surgery one week before junior promTo losing a family member who showed me how to be a strong womanTo inspiring my Toastmasters mentor to change her lifeMy first signature story revolved around my experiences with being a big loser.But, there's a difference between a signature story and signature speech. This is often what separates unpaid motivational speakers from paid professional speakers.What could be your signature story? Think about something in your life that you were really proud of.Something that you achieved that maybe no one else in your family or your friends circle or your colleagues have achieved, that could be the beginning of your signature story. Liked this episode?
