In our last episode, we met Chloe, a talented director struggling to communicate with confidence and influence senior leaders at her company. Alongside guest expert Stacey Hanke, we explored her “Monday to Monday” philosophy and how consistent communication builds trust and credibility. In this solo episode, Jay reveals seven actionable techniques that anyone can develop to communicate with more clarity, confidence, and impact. From mastering eye contact to owning your tone, Jay explains why each skill matters and how practicing them can transform your presence, whether you’re leading a team, pitching an idea, or deepening personal relationships. Jay challenges listeners to pick one technique to focus on first, practice it until it becomes habit, and then move to the next. These are the same fundamentals he has refined over years as a speaker, coach, and podcast host, and they remain the hallmarks of every great communicator. If becoming a more influential and engaging communicator is important to you, this episode gives you a clear starting point and a plan to improve starting today.
