#BethennyFrankel recently received the Reality Royalty Lifetime Achievement Award at the MTV Movie & TV Awards. Bethenny shared wisdom, humor, gratitude and inspiration through her words.
As you watch her speech, there are many good takeaways for all of us who look to improve our speaking skills.
First, note Bethenny’s presence and her stance. Her eye contact is direct, her smile is warm, she is very centered and in a quick amount of time she takes us on a journey.
Bethenny’s tone is warm and confident. Her words are genuine, she’s humble and authentic. All of this makes us, the listener, connect with her even quicker. She has great timing, there is personal reflection and a connection to her message. This speech flows and is well organized. There are just the right amount of words. No more, no less.
Bethenny masters the art of the pause throughout her acceptance speech. Anyone that’s worked with me knows that I love pauses. Watch when the audience applauds, Bethenny stops. That’s exactly right, we have to let our audience respond to us.
The big takeaway…this talk is under three minutes.
Never underestimate the impact and inspiration you can leave on a single person or a crowd in a short amount of time.
Watch the journey that she takes us on

Nola is an amazing public speaking coach! I just gave the best presentation I've ever given to over 200 people in person last week. I received many compliments. Not only did Nola help me with structuring my speech, but she also taught me many speech techniques that can help engage the audience and make me sound more confident in my presentation.
