Last week, from far north Queensland, I practised what I preach and said "yes" to an interview on ABC radio talking about The Visibility Project . Here's how I prepared: - First off, I reminded myself it’s just a conversation. No one wants to hear rehearsed "perfect" lines. - Don't over-prepare. For me, spending hours or days going around the mental cul-de-sac thinking about it only makes me unnecessarily nervous. Instead, I decide when I'll start thinking about it, which is usually the day before. This approach works for me, but, put simply, I know everyone's brains are different. - Instead of worrying about how it would go, I asked myself, "who can I help by showing up?" Do it for them. - I visualised it going well. Not in an "I'm going to sit and meditate" kind of way, but just every time it popped into my head. Think about it going well. Simple but effective. - I zeroed in on my key points: highlighting my amazing clients, sharing interesting research on why women avoid visibility, and showcasing our project's impact. - I decided to enjoy it! What fun! What an opportunity! Now, on the other side of the interview, I’m happy to say it went well. I had so much fun discussing a topic so close to my heart. I'm also excited to share that the program will be interviewing someone from The Visibility Project each week between now and Christmas, highlighting fascinating South Australian women doing incredible things. If you fit the bill (of course you do!) and you're keen to share your story (of course you should be), or if you know someone with a story to tell (of course you definitely do), please get in touch below. -- Want more content like this?
