Queensland Reflection #3
Finding My Authentic Voice
I went to Queensland thinking I was going to learn how to become a better speaker.
But one of my biggest takeaways was learning how to become more of myself when I speak.
Working with Miroslav Bardović opened my eyes to a completely different side of speaking- ✨ the energetics behind our words.
He taught me to notice what was arising in my body.
The nerves.
The tension.
The energy.
Rather than trying to push it away or pretend it wasn’t there, I learnt to work with it, move it through my body and allow it to become part of my presence.
That spoke my language. 🤍
He also challenged me to use my voice differently - to project, to play with different ranges, to take up space and become comfortable hearing the power in my own voice.
And perhaps one of the biggest lessons…
To own the room with conviction.
Not by becoming louder.
Not by performing.
But by believing deeply in the message I am here to share.
Because when your words come from something you’ve truly lived, people don’t just hear your message.
They feel it.
That’s what I appreciate about Miroslav and his Influence course.
He is real. He is humble. I don’t feel ego when he teaches. And he won’t give up on you until you begin to find what is true for you on that stage.
But beyond the teacher and speaker, I also see a loving husband and father.
That speaks volumes to me.
So much so that I’ve decided to continue working with Miroslav for the next year.
I came to Queensland wanting to improve my speaking.
I left wanting to discover just how much more of my voice is waiting to be expressed.
And I have a feeling this is only the beginning. ✨
If you’ve been thinking about developing your speaking, or you’re simply curious about my personal experience with Miroslav and Influence, stay curious and connect with me. I’m always happy to share.
