So here is Part 2 of my birthday reflections. I hope you enjoyed Part 1. It was a really refreshing experience; and I hope that when your birthday comes around again, you will spend some time reflecting on the persons and milestones that have impacted your life.

I was openly very emotional; but those tears cleansed me and helped me to realize in a significant way, that no man is an island. We are dependent beings in the sense that we need people in our lives for our growth and development. I give God thanks for every person and situation in my life that have served to make me who I am today; and have given me what I have.

Please go ahead and share your experience.

Peace be with you! Welcome to Value Added Thursday. 

What do you do on your birth-date? I celebrated mine on June 2; and this time I spent it reflecting on the significant persons and milestones in my life; persons and things that shaped me and made me who I am today; and laid the foundation for what I have been able to achieve. 

Pardon me, but I became so emotional doing this podcast, the tears just flowed. It refreshed me though and brought back some pleasant memories. Please listen and interact. Let me know how you usually spend your birthday; and if such an exercise is worth doing for you.

This is Part 1. I will continue next week with Part 2.

I am on a series where guests have been sharing where they are now in their vision in this 5th month of May in 2022. Where are you? How did you start your year? Are you where you want to be? How did you get there? If you are not; why?

This week, Heneka Watkis-Porter shares her experience. Watch out though. It is not your usual kind of story. This one will have you being sad, then happy; shocked then settled; surprised but grateful. Listen, then do your own reflection share your story.

Greetings!

Welcome to Episode 9 of Value Added Thursday. Good to "see" you "smile". 

WE have been talking about being an effective Public Speaker. Last week, I focused on connecting with your audience. Today, I take it further and speak about how to get persons to know, like and trust you. There are four terms that I use which I will call the 4 C's as learnt from my mentor. However, I didn't just take his word for it; I proved it for myself. 

If you want to be effective as a speaker, you too need to bear these in mind. Please go ahead and listen. Be interactive. Be engaged in the poll question. Go ahead and share it with your tribe. 

If you need Public Speaking Coaching, please reach out; vatwitht@gmail.com or call at 1 876 319-6567

I look forward to hearing from you.

Welcome to this week's episode of Value Added Thursday (VAT), especially if you're joining for the first time. 

In this episode I continue on the theme of Effective Public Speaking. In the previous episode, the focus was on Developing Content. If you missed it, please listen. In this new episode (VAT 7); it's all about Connecting with Your Audience. No matter how prepared you are and how developed and organized your content is, if you cannot connect with your audience, your presentation may not be considered effective. 

So how do you connect with your audience? Two valuable points were shared. Listen and join in answering the poll questions and the Q & A. 

You are also welcome to utilize my service as a Public Speaking Coach. It is a very intensive course as I prepare you for a world stage having been Maxwell Leadership Certified. I look forward to serving you. Relevant and necessary information are below:

So you have formulated, formatted and filed your stories and are now ready to launch your self as a speaker. However, you need to know how to prepare for and to develop your content for that presentation. Today's podcast tells you how. If you follow these steps you should be on the right path. Proper preparation shows that you care about your audience. It will also give you the confidence you need; and afford you the credibility you deserve. There is much more to becoming an effective public speaker. With my Maxwell Leadership Certification, I offer an intensive course of study in the form of coaching and mentoring in Public Speaking.

As you listen please go ahead and share, subscribe and follow. Make a commitment to listen every Thursday. I would appreciate you engaging in the Poll Questions and the Q & A's

Please reach out for Public Speaking Coaching or for speaking engagements. The contact details are vatwitht@gmail.com or you may call 1876 319-6567

So you started 2022 with a vision of where you want to be in various areas of your life. How is that going? Are things taking shape? This is April. We have started the second quarter of the year. Are you pleased with what you have achieved so far? Yes? Great! No? Why not?

In this week's podcast, I ask you to really do some self analysis and make a note of where you are at this stage of your life. I also make some suggestions of what you can do if you are stuck. If you are not stuck, they are also relevant and useful to help you to further enhance your life. 

I would appreciate you listening and giving your feedback in the poll or Q & A.
