We teach children how to write, but not how to speak. That’s why very few people know how to improve their own speech.

Luckily, I can help you improve your speech.

I learned how to improve mine by accident. As a podcast host, I spend a lot of time listening to my own voice. I listen to critique myself, edit the podcasts or re-listen to old episodes for fun. At first, listening to your own voice is annoying. I’ve experienced that. But after a while, you get used to it.

Improving speech falls into two buckets: (1) what to stop doing, and (2) what to start doing.
