209. Choose Connection Over Perfection: Why Doctors Struggle with Public Speaking and What We Can Do About It with Hilary Blair
Manage episode 431123396 series 2882323
The world needs physician voices. Enjoy a fun conversation with Hilary Blair, founder of Articulate Real & Clear, about how mindfulness, intention, and most of all presence can help anyone, especially doctors, give a great talk.
The way we are trained to think as physicians makes public speaking more of a challenge than it should be for most physicians.
We are trained to:
worry what others will think of us
fear judgment, rejection, and shame
talk fast and "not waste time"
always share as much information as possible
be sure others think we know "enough"
not take risks
blame ourselves if we make a mistake (or even if others think something not flattering about us)
xatastrophize what might happen if we make a mistake or embarrass ourselves
Most physicians find it very uncomfortable to be seen as an expert or a star. We were taught this could be perceived as gloating. It could also lead to complacency and maybe a mistake. We tend to prefer to “serve” others under the radar.
We are trained that there is “a right way” and that, if you haven’t been trained, "you don’t know how."
We tend to default to thinking that we are imposters. We fear that someone may discover we don’t know everything about everything.
What can we do to improve our public speaking?
Choose connection over perfection
Do more of what’s working and less of what’s not
Work with a mindset/life coach (AKA Jessie) to understand our patterns, how our brain works, and how we can optimize our performance in the exam room, on a stage, and at home
Practice owning our authenticity, wisdom, and expertise every day
Practice mindfulness and learn how to drop into our body
Connect with our intentions, as a speaker and otherwise
Work with a speaking coach to clarify our message, tone, and energy
