What does it truly take to become a powerful communicator in today’s world? On this episode of Speaking With Confidence, host Tim Newman sits down with Shirlee Engel, seasoned TV reporter turned on-camera coach, to unpack the tools, mindsets, and effective communication skills that bring authentic connection to every conversation, far beyond just public speaking.

Whether you’re building a business, leading a team, or growing your influence online, Shirlee shares how to master leadership communication, develop active listening skills, and overcome those confidence hurdles (yes, even the dreaded imposter syndrome and speaking anxiety). Spoiler: The secret has less to do with memorizing scripts and more with showing up as yourself.

You’ll learn how storytelling, authenticity, and embracing imperfection can transform presentations, video content, and daily conversations into powerful moments of connection and impact. Tune in for practical advice to:

Build public speaking confidence, even if you’re not on a stage
Use storytelling techniques as your “currency” in a noisy, AI-driven world
Master the art of showing up authentically (camera “resting face” and all!)
Repurpose content and leverage technology for presentation skills development
Turn your presence into profit through strategic visibility and messaging

Key Takeaways

It’s Not Just About Public Speaking: Powerful communication is about how you connect, listen, and share your story across every channel, from Zoom calls to videos and live events.
Authenticity Is Your Superpower: Shirlee explains why embracing imperfections and showing your human side create true connection—and why storytelling is more critical now than ever.
Overcoming Imposter Syndrome & Anxiety: Both Tim and Shirlee get candid about their own struggles with confidence, sharing tips for breaking through self-doubt and putting yourself out there.
Actionable Techniques for Any Communicator: Discover practical ways to build confidence on and off-camera, structure your message, and ensure every interaction—whether leading a meeting or posting online—leaves a lasting impact.
