We have lost an enormous amount of substance and the ability to effectively communicate our thoughts and emotions verbally, vocally, and physically because we’re afraid of the ramifications. But if we can just get back to our basics and start talking to each other as humans, we're going to be in a much better situation.
Ever feel like you're walking on eggshells when trying to express yourself? In this episode of The Addicted Mind Podcast, host Duane Osterlind chats with Brett Lavender, a keynote speaker and performance coach, about the critical role of effective communication in our lives. Brett, the Founder and CEO of Persuasive Lion, shares his unique perspective on how 'cancel culture' has stifled our ability to communicate openly and honestly.
He argues that fear of judgment has made us hesitant to speak our minds, leading to a society that's more disconnected than ever. But it doesn't have to be this way. Brett introduces his Lost Languages program, designed to help people reclaim their voice through persuasive verbal and non-verbal techniques. He emphasizes the importance of melody in our speech, pointing out that how we say something can be just as important as what we say.
Text-based communication, he notes, often falls short in conveying the full range of human emotions. This episode also delves into Brett's personal journey, marked by significant loss and challenges that shaped his understanding of communication. For those in addiction recovery, Brett highlights how mastering authentic communication can be a game-changer, helping to build trust and improve relationships. Tune in to learn how you can become a more effective communicator and enhance your personal and professional life.
