I was actually praying this morning that God i need to able to communicate effectively,i am required to speak on a daily basis and i just feel dumb ,i get so nervous i lose my train of thought. this is really great thank you

[@agnesmabena3674]

Same here😢

Same here. It's worse cause in my head when I recite, I am perfect. But come the time to stand on a podium, it's all blank. As a result, my confidence has been greatly affected😞

💔 same, it’s not easy at all been struggling for years

[@cukumetani]

Are you talking about me in this comment, sounds like me, and thanks you raised it.

[@vanessa_bukasa]

I'm so glad this reached you when you needed it most! Feeling nervous and losing your train of thought is common, but with practice and a few strategies, you can overcome this. Remember, every speaker starts somewhere, and it's okay to take small steps. Thanks for sharing your thoughts, and keep pushing forward. You've got this

[@patience_mogorosi]

"You need to allow yourself to be small before you can be big"... I love what you said here🙌👌❤

Just what I need right now. Thanks ladies. Thank God

[@Siiviwe]

Aaah, this is a very interesting conversation. I remember that before 2020, I was in corporate, and I struggled so much because I was just not confident. I was so frustrated at the time I even started therapy, and the therapist coached me into public speaking. At the time, I wanted to enter academia as a lecturer, but I couldn't speak. I took public speaking courses during COVID-19. It was the best thing I have ever done for myself. I am now in academia, growing so much, and all of this happened in less than 3 years. I am that girl now in meetings. 😜

[@nalediramontja]

Hi mind to share where you took your public speaking classes?

[@Siiviwe]

@@nalediramontja mostly I read textbooks on public speaking the. There are online platforms like Alison but try LinkedIn learning. It has free courses. I even started a YT channel to learning to how to project my voice.

[@Pearl_Mazibuko]

Please share the details of the classes

Hey Linkedin Learning has a lot uf free courses you can try out. Also Alison but you pay for the certificate

Absolutely!😁

[@VhulendaMundalamo]

I'm a Venda lady and it's natural for me to always use English because not a lot of people know Tshivenda. I've been ridiculed and hated a LOT for speaking English and speaking up at work and at school. Whether we like it or not, English is the medium of communication in any professional setting. If you don't k now the language, don't hate those who do, they can teach you if you ask nicely :)

[@fulufhelotakalani1151]

Funny i looked at this lady and thought she looks like you.

[@SibahleMseleku]

Kindly teach me English

[@kitsontuli2713]

I'm a Ndebele woman currently working in the Vhembhe region and the mense here do not compromise that much when it comes to speaking tshiVenda. I've had to learn quickly 😂

[@zammyzee8073]

I just realized that I need to upskill my son while he's still young. He gets tongue tied a lot and people are impatient with him but he's so smart. I have always been confident and therefore never struggle with standing out so much so that I used to get annoyed with myself for it because why am I always given extra (non paying) responsibilities at work. I will leverage on it going forward. Thank you for this

[@Mrenzula]

I'm confident when I talk but sometimes English data bundles run out and I start mumbling 😂😂😂😂😂geez I hate those moment. This is when I wish I had A+ education and public speaking platform at an early age

[@Miss_Zimm]

I think you overthink it.. just speak I swear some people are not interested on how you speak the English but what are you saying.

[@THEVIRTUALBACKOFFICELULU]

😂😂😂I CAN RELATE!!! I am very comfortable with speaking to few or many. But yoooohhh the data bundles conspire against me too😂😂 what I have started doing is to say what’s on my mind in vernacular, I just speak and then translate it. It has helped me. I am confident doing it, not ashamed at all.

[@Mrenzula]

I will most definitely try that, maybe I'm in my head too much lol, thanks guys

[@wow-xu6kc]

Mi too

[@nanasarah6386]

Me too yoh my English is the problem but I believe I’m a very smart woman

[@langelihlenyuswa5920]

Such an important conversation. Had a terrible experience during my internship because I just was not asserting myself at all! In meetings I’d just keep quiet and only raise concerns/questions to the person afterwards. I became invisible and overlooked. My work was brilliant but I couldn’t sell it and I suffered the consequences. I’m thankful that I am at the beginning of my career and have the grace of time to attend to the issue and work on it now before I suffer the consequences.

[@winnysarahrhobi6760]

Same to me gal

[@SisinomaliNkosi]

[@vanessa_bukasa]

I am glad that you are working on it! Let me know if you would like to walk the journey together!

❤ In my point of view, public speaking is not only transfering knowledge but also transfering energy to audients. Am I right? ❤

[@davidtv-official5417]

I agree with you 100%

[@kendaddi5857]

This lady indeed, is a good public speaker. She speaks very articulately and avoids many bad speech mannerisms.

I am a Business Analyst. Speaking is what i should do in a daily basis. But i still fear this is helpful

[@kgetsepemkhabela3963]

Me and you both. Very difficult but we will win.

[@vanessa_bukasa]

I'm so glad to hear you found the podcast helpful! It's completely normal to feel fear around public speaking, even when it's a regular part of your job. The key is to acknowledge that fear and work through it with practice, preparation, and strategies for managing nerves. Keep pushing your comfort zone a little at a time, and remember, each speaking opportunity is a step towards becoming more confident and impactful. If there's anything specific you'd like advice on, please feel free to ask. Keep going. You've got this!

If english is your secong language its difficult

[@vanessa_bukasa]

It is such a critical and underrated skill!

[@mmogomofokeng9098]

preparedness helps a lot, it sounds small but write down everything prior to the meeting so you don't off-ramp.

[@makhosanamashiane]

“Representing yourself in every engagement “thank you for that

[@luphelele]

Ladies, this is so in season. I recently had a really close loved one pass and was asked to speak at her funeral. I was terrified. I can't even explain how terrified I was. Really, it wasn't the speaking itself that terrified me, I was nervous about people knowing that I am nervous. My voice also starts shaking and my hands tremble when I'm nervous so my fears were that people would see that and know I'm scared. And I didn't know what to do to make it stop. If I knew how to do that, I think public speaking would scare me less. Anyways, I didn't do the speech because the mics weren't working and I was worried that I wouldn't be heard. It felt very childish to be so afraid to do something that it stops you from doing something that matters more. I left feeling like I need to sort this out, ngeke. Otherwise I'll be limited in my ability to show up for my loved ones.

[@vanessa_bukasa]

I'm sorry for your loss and the difficult time you faced. It's perfectly natural to feel overwhelmed in such moments. Your desire to improve your speaking skills is commendable and shows great care for your loved ones. Remember, it's a journey of small steps, and I'm here to support you. You've got this!

[@aliogamaryrose4805]

How is it going working on it?

[@mamikimasilo5647]

Thank you so much for the conversation! I grew up being such a shy and timid person. Never did I imagine myself in spaces where I needed to show the bravery of an activist and voice out my opinions. My career as an intern gave me the platform to interact more with people; and instantly my personality changed completely once I started. I love conversation and hosting topics of interest. I don't mind sharing what's on my mind regardless of how stupid it may be to the next person. I believe the more you interact; the easier communication becomes. I am simply a confident introvert, all attributed to challenging myself to speak out.

[@vanessa_bukasa]

I agree. It is like a muscle, the more you use it, the stronger you get at it!

Am Esther from Lagos Nigeria, and i attended an interview with a Chinese company here in and i was interviewed by two Chinese representatives and at the end i wasn't offered the job, but i came out confidently knowing that i gave it my all, and that probability they thought the salary might not be ok for me because i already worked for 2 years in Dubai UAE and is actually in my resume 😂😂😂😂😂 Even though i later removed my Dubai work experience so people won't be intimidated by it and actually give me the work because i really need it.😅 Thanks for that topic ❤

I'm thrilled to hear the timing was perfect for you!

[@drinkswithsplendour4387]

This is the best message I had to hear, we get to work and don’t speak in meetings and complain about the people that speak the most, very bad habit, instead of complaining start learning his to speak in meetings because the people who speak more gets more recognised.

[@memo__yp]

I applied the tips today in my monthly finance review meeting! It worked. It works!!! Especially the part about focusing on service, not "Am I sounding right". I also forced myself to speak up more, it was terrifying but I did it!! Thank you so much. From Zimbabwe

[@lechelle51]

I haven’t finished the video yet, but this one thing really stood out. I’m focused on do I look okay? Do I sound okay? While the audience is focused on “What is in this for me? What information applies to me? Wow. That’s super helpful.

She was the bomb! bring her back again soon 🥰

[@TheNyakaat]

One thing I love about your guest is that she doesn’t come across as an extrovert. This debunks the notion that only extroverts excel at public speaking. Actually extroverts are less believable to me because they sound as though they’re delivering a pitch that they give to everyone that comes their way. A soft spoken person is more believable and relatable.

[@hlubikazinqadini6720]

[@vanessa_bukasa]

I think that that's a wonderful secret passion to have😁! Loving public speaking and admiring those who do it confidently is the first step. It's okay to feel afraid; most speakers start there. Embrace your fear as a sign of something that truly matters to you. Small, consistent steps outside your comfort zone can lead to great progress. Keep nurturing your love for speaking, and you'll find your confidence growing with each experience

[@miriamojwang9881]

I came to learn this the hard way. Yes, your work will speak for you to a point but after that, you must speak out. Your presence must be felt. The most mediocre motor mouths move up the ladder because they have a way with words. They speak even when they really don’t have to. In the end, they get noticed and are usually in line for that promotion.

[@salamawise]

The fact. Fully agree

I really loved this episode. As a passionate public speaker, I do believe that voicing it out professionally gets you to another level. However, this works out in companies where there is a solid culture for its Human capital. Sometimes confidently articulating some issues or suggestions in some companies can land differently to a company that doesn't have a culture of growth. However this was enjoyable

[@phelanemakunga2369]

Brilliant advice from a brilliant mind. The first time I met Vanessa as ABSA, she was speaking in public and that is how I was introduced to her brilliance. Never would I have thought that public speaking was a challenge.

This video has open my mind up, especially the parent training - in a household where elders opinion are more loud compared to yours you can fill small in your own world which effects your development but this really give me an advice to forgive my current and previous self in communication. Knowing that I am normal and not the only one going through this yet working on my articulation - the more practice the more competent and the more confident I become.

[@ReginaMoroeng]

Very good, tried and tested tips indeed. What I do, and it really works well; before I speak I 'survey' the room for a few seconds instead of starting immediately with my speech. It shows your audience that you are confident and in control. It really works.

[@youb8345]

Wow, I love the fact that I came across this video today. I grew up very timid as an introvert and had never wanted to be at the fore how much more speak. I never wanted the attention on me but for some reasons my career path changed and I ended up as a presenter. Through internship and discovering my purpose I've come to become stronger in the outer space speaking on almost any platform. But honestly in the course of these journey: I saw lots of videos on KZbin I got a mentor I learnt to practice and sometimes script and rehearse my script before presentation. I read wide And yes, deep breathing is a powerful tool that helps you ease off the tension build up. God bless you sisters for this.

I stumbled upon this video yesterday but I'm glad I did, very useful tips. Thank you ladies, I'm clicking replay. By the way, there's something about Vanessa Bukasa that reminds me of Princess Diana, but the more confident version of Princess Diana. Thanks for the great tips, ladies, be blessed.

Thank you ladies. I admit i have been suffering from lack of confidence when it comes to public speaking and any time iam given a chance in a function i always judge myself afterwards and look more into the messes rrather than the rights. This is so helpful, iam going to implement most of your shares especially that one of forgiving myself first. I will consider a coach probably. And you are all so beautiful

Loved everything about this episode, so much great insight. Also to add on another tip that helped so much in gaining confidence when speaking publicly is thinking of why people need to hear what you have to say.
