Public Speaking Tips for Women (and Men)

Here is an article written by Tara Sophia Mohr with eight "Public Speaking Tips For Women". I have found them to be very helpful and smart. Although this article was written towards women I know that men are known to say and do some of these things. Hopefully men and women will find this article useful.

A few words that I catch myself saying while public speaking and in my everyday speech are "just" and "actually". If I cut these words out of my vocabulary I think my speech's would become more effective.

Check out the link below. Hopefully you will find it as helpful as I did.
