Toni talks with the inspirational Jose who in his journey to becoming a successful global speaker uncovered ground breaking insights for personal development that turned his obstacles into triumphant public speaking and stand up comedy performances. He shares inspirational advice on how even negative reactions or the worst case scenario happening are things you can get through and learn from. There is something for everyone in this episode about overcoming fear, taking action and expressing yourself so the whole world knows who you are.   KEY TAKEAWAYS It was millions of micro moments of bravery doing what I feared. When you are a public speaker you need to know your audience. Joining toastmasters was an opportunity to expose myself in a controlled manner on a weekly basis. Controlling your breathing is an important element when public speaking. Everyone faces challenges and there is a level of ear but the more you put yourself in situations when you need to face your fear the more in control of yourself you become. Negative reactions can play a big role in becoming de-sensitised. Even if the worst-case scenario does happen you will still be here and there is a lesson around it. If fear is something you know is going to be there, it’s a constant, and will not stop you taking action Friends and family almost never change how they think about you, the dynamics don’t change they are the people who know your essence. It may have been that outside world didn’t know you because you didn’t express you. When you show up you are not just showing up for yourself you are showing up for others and letting them know they matter.   BEST MOMENTS ‘With a change in mindset fear becomes a trampoline that you metaphorically jump on’ ‘It may have been that outside world didn’t know you because you didn’t express yourself’ ‘Do it for yourself and to impact others’   VALUABLE RESOURCES Presenting, Pitching, Public Speaking Podcast Unlimited Success Progressive Property   ABOUT THE HOST  Toni Gargan is a Double World Record-holding Public Speaker, Mentor, Entrepreneur, and Professional Property Investor.
