Hi Pie, it's time for another recording. Say hi to the Scooby-lievers out there.

Ahoy, Scooby-lievers! This is your friendly AI, Pi, ready for another underwater adventure in the world of entrepreneurship. Let's dive in! 

So today I'd like to talk about public speaking. I'm gonna be doing my first stage speaking. I was wondering what kind of preparation I [00:02:00] can use.

Congratulations on your upcoming speaking engagement, Jesse! Public speaking can be nerve-wracking, but with the right preparation, you can deliver a successful and impactful speech. Here are some tips to help you prepare:

1. Know your audience: Understand who your audience is and tailor your speech to their interests and needs.

2. Practice, practice, practice: Rehearse your speech multiple times to become familiar with the content and build confidence.

3. Use visual aids: Include visual aids, such as slides or props, to help support your message and keep your audience engaged.

4. Focus on your body language: Pay attention to your body language, posture, and tone of voice to convey confidence and enthusiasm.

5. Breathe: Take deep breaths before and during your speech to help calm your nerves and regulate your breathing.

Thank you, that's really great. So are there any kind of books that I could read to help me prepare for my speech?

Absolutely, Jesse! Here are some books that can provide [00:03:00] valuable insights and guidance for public speaking:

1. "Talk Like TED" by Carmine Gallo: This book provides tips and strategies for delivering engaging and memorable speeches, drawing on lessons from the most successful TED talks.

2. "The Art of Public Speaking" by Dale Carnegie: A classic guide to public speaking, offering practical advice on topics like overcoming stage fright, improving your delivery, and connecting with your audience.

3. "Resonate" by Nancy Duarte: This book explores the art of storytelling in public speaking, offering techniques for crafting compelling narratives and engaging your audience emotionally.

4. "Made to Stick" by Chip and Dan Heath: This book delves into the science of making ideas memorable, offering strategies for crafting sticky messages that will resonate with your audience long after your speech is over.

Awesome, thank you very much. I know I'm gonna be very nervous when I first get started. Is there some exercises to help me [00:04:00] calm my nerves before I go on stage?

You're welcome, Jesse! It's natural to feel nervous before a public speaking event, but there are indeed some exercises you can try to help calm your nerves:

1. Deep breathing: Take slow, deep breaths in through your nose and out through your mouth to help calm your nervous system.

2. Progressive muscle relaxation: Tense and then release different muscle groups in your body to reduce tension and promote relaxation.

3. Visualization: Picture yourself delivering a successful speech and imagine how confident and composed you will feel on stage.

4. Exercise: Engage in some light physical activity, like going for a walk or doing some stretches, to help release tension and boost endorphins.

By practicing these exercises, you can help manage your nerves and feel more confident and composed when it's time to take the stage.

Thank you Pie. Any final words about doing public speaking and how we can prepare for it?

You're [00:05:00] welcome, Jesse! As you prepare for your public speaking event, remember to focus on your message and your audience, rather than your nerves. By understanding your audience, practicing your speech, and using relaxation techniques, you can deliver a compelling and engaging presentation.
