On the Express to Impress Podcast, I will show you how to express yourself in a way that people understand you, respect you, and give you what you want. So, if you want to learn how to present yourself in writing, say, in a resume, personal statement, or LinkedIn profile, this podcast is for you. If you want to learn how to introduce yourself, your ideas, or accomplishments during an interview, networking event, or presentation, this podcast is for you. If you want to learn general communication tips for the workplace, this podcast is also for you.

So, what can you expect during a typical episode? You will hear stories from my career and my clients’ careers. I believe mistakes make the best teachers, and they can be funny, so some of my stories include examples of communication failures. I will also share communication techniques and steps you can take to be understood and advance your career. I will use everyday language as much as possible, and I’ll share definitions for idioms and phrases at the end of each episode. From time to time, I’ll invite guests. I cannot wait to talk to some inspiring folks and share those interviews with you!

You can find transcripts for the episodes on my website at https://www.express-to-impress.com/podcast/. You can also send questions to me at hello@express-to-impress.com.
