#29 Speaking Gig, Hitchhiking & Routines: Life Update
Episode notes
Listen in as Caro shares her personal experiences and insights from her recent speaking engagement at a Nomad Festival. We take you on a journey from the nerves and anticipation in the days leading up to the talk, through the event itself and the aftermath. We discuss how Caro structured her talk about using intuition when travelling, and how she made it her mission to create a space for people to connect with their intuition. We also explore the role of improvisation and intuition in public speaking, and how these elements can instil a sense of confidence, even when facing a large audience.
Join us as we reflect on the powerful realisation that life derives meaning from the choices we make. Caro shares how the audience responded to her talk and how this experience felt like a significant leap in her career. We also discuss the importance of creating meaningful connections with those around us, and how these connections can profoundly affect our quality of life.
Tag along on our hitchhiking adventure as we take you through the importance of not overthinking things and trusting the universe. Caro also gives a shout-out to Julian, her production assistant, for his support throughout this journey. As she looks to the future and attempts to establish a routine post-Spain, we emphasise the importance of having a supportive team around us. Whether you're a veteran public speaker or a novice looking to improve, this episode is packed with valuable insights and experiences.
