  Melinda Lee: Welcome, dear listeners to speak in flow
• 0:04
  Podcast. I'm glad you're here, because I want to toast you. I'm
• 0:09
  holding a wineglass. Cheers. And it doesn't have wine in it. It
• 0:14
  is Friday, but it's only 12 o'clock in the afternoon. So I
• 0:19
  decided to put Chem Bucha in there. Close enough with some
• 0:24
  berries. Because we're celebrating today, today is the
• 0:28
  50th episode. Oh, I can't believe we made it. When I think
• 0:33
  back on my journey. first starting off, there was so much
• 0:37
  resistance. Who am I? What am I going to, you know, say,
• 0:42
  overwhelm. I can't do this with all the other things that I got
• 0:47
  to do. So I had so much fear and uncertainty and resistance. But
• 0:52
  yet, I knew I needed to do it. My deeper Higher Self knew that
• 0:57
  I needed to overcome that. And so I did and now I'm 50th on the
• 1:02
  50th episode. And along this journey, I've learned so much
• 1:06
  about myself I listened to the episodes What can I do to
• 1:11
  improve what can I do to improve interviewing my guest? How do I
• 1:16
  streamline the process and and here I am. We won an award for
• 1:21
  the most downloaded podcasts.
• 1:24
  I'm gonna celebrate yay, why nots. So cheers, thank you might
• 1:31
  take a sip. Delicious, delicious. And I'm also
• 1:36
  acknowledging that this year 2024 is the Year of the Dragon.
• 1:42
  And in Chinese astrology, it's a mythical creature magical and
• 1:49
  brings prosperity and health. And guess what, I'm also born
• 1:55
  the year of the dragon. And I feel the energy and the
• 2:00
  environment. Support me.
• 2:04
  I believe that my ancestry, my mom, my grandmother, all the
• 2:09
  women in my ancestry supporting me full heartedly. I know
• 2:14
  they're here with me. Let's face it, this journey of
• 2:18
  entrepreneurship. It's not easy. And, and but yet I know that
• 2:24
  this is my year. This is the year where clients I know that
• 2:29
  are ready to step into their Unshakable Confidence are here.
• 2:33
  And I'm saying that they are here not will be here, but they
• 2:36
  are here. I know that with every truce of me.
• 2:41
  And I can let go of the fear the anxiety. Because I trust and I
• 2:48
  trust that it will happen. And so when you go to speak, I'm
• 2:54
  going to give you a framework, a reminder to do your exercises
• 3:01
  before you go to speak. Because I hope you feel the power of my
• 3:07
  words, not just listening to the word but feeling the word. And
• 3:14
  when you step into a presentation, your words have
• 3:19
  energy. My words right now are fueled by the ancestry behind me
• 3:26
  my passion for what is about to happen. We want you and your
• 3:32
  words to do the same. And to do that, all you have to do is to
• 3:38
  steps warm up and get into state. Warming up is changing
• 3:44
  your perspective. changing your mindset, dissolving any nerves
• 3:51
  any uncomfortableness any fear and whether you need 510 2030
• 3:57
  minutes to do that, do it.
• 4:01
  But there are lots of activities that I share with my clients and
• 4:07
  today I am going to share with you one that I love particularly
• 4:14
  enjoy doing it is to drown down any thoughts. Any worries to a
• 4:20
  golden ball is golden ball. Imagine a golden ball two inches
• 4:25
  below your navel. It's a beautiful golden ball. And that
• 4:31
  golden ball is here to absorb any thoughts, any concerns and
• 4:37
  you worries just allow those to drown down and get magnetise
• 4:42
  into this beautiful power centre. Your power centre is
• 4:48
  here to support you. Connect to that power centre and then take
• 4:54
  a moment to breathe into it. Taking in your breath and
• 4:59
  exhaling and feeling the sense of calm On a piece. And do this
• 5:05
  numerous times, multiple times until you feel and embody
• 5:10
  confidence before you speak.
• 5:15
  Your words have energy. If you go into your meetings with fear
• 5:20
  or doubt, anything you say the other person will also feel fear
• 5:26
  and doubt. You can be saying all the right words, but if they
• 5:31
  feel doubt, if you feel doubt, they'll feel doubt. If you feel
• 5:37
  uncertain, they'll feel uncertain. Even if you're using
• 5:42
  the right words. If you take a moment to do your warmup, get
• 5:47
  into the state of confidence, you're gonna say the exact same
• 5:53
  words, but with confidence, they're going to feel your
• 5:58
  competence. You are the leader and the guide of your
• 6:02
  communication through the energy of your words. So remember to do
• 6:08
  your warm ups, get connected to your why your passion, and go in
• 6:14
  there and commit to your state of confidence. Use the energy of
• 6:20
  your words and allow it to flow through you. So it connects to
• 6:25
  your audience, your audience is going to receive your energy, of
• 6:31
  competence of courage. And stay committed to that. Just like I
• 6:37
  am staying committed to speaking with my heart, with my trust,
• 6:42
  speaking in honour of the ancestry behind me, my mom, my
• 6:47
  grandmother, all the women who did not have an opportunity to
• 6:53
  say what was in their heart to say their desires because they
• 6:58
  had a barrier. They were not given the opportunities.
• 7:04
  And so it is my chance to do that and respect for them. And
• 7:10
  to honour the leaders, leaders going forward such as my
• 7:15
  daughter, my daughter, who is still finding her voice, helping
• 7:21
  her to unlock it being a role model for her being a role model
• 7:27
  for anybody else who wants to step in to unlock and unleash
• 7:33
  their voice.
• 7:35
  Their leadership voice. It is time this gear is especially
• 7:41
  time the year the dragon come along with me for the journey. I
• 7:46
  can't wait to see you on the other side. Until then, I'm your
• 7:51
  sister and flow. Cheers.
• 7:54
  Take care
