Bronwyn Saglimbeni Rebelling FOR Authentic Communication

 

 

Over the past 20 years, Bronwyn Saglimbeni has dedicated herself to helping people shine while communicating with authenticity. She is a communication coach and speaker who has helped her clients prepare for their appearances in big moments - from The Oprah Winfrey Show to TEDx Talks. Whether it’s through her podcast, 20 Minutes with Bronwyn, her coaching, or public speaking, Bronwyn shares tools and techniques that allow people to shine their brightest and dazzle their audiences.

 

Bronwyn joins me today to discuss how we can bring our most authentic selves into communication. She shares her experience with the writing process and underscores the importance of confronting our emotions in the creative process. She defines what it means to shine and highlights the techniques you can employ to earn and hold your audience’s attention in any form of communication. She also describes the power of anchoring your message in emotion and discusses how our negative self-talk influences how we communicate with others.

 

 

 

“Authenticity for its own sake is just an ego trip. Authenticity in service to the audience’s needs, that’s when the electricity happens on-stage.” - Bronwyn Saglimbeni
