[Quick Tip] Talk Flow Tips: Create Seamless Transitions Like a Pro - 326

In this quick tip episode, I'm letting you in on one of the most overlooked — but totally game-changing — parts of any talk: the segue.

It's that moment between a killer story and your next point where everything suddenly feels… awkward.

Where the energy drops, the audience blinks, and you find yourself muttering:
"Anyway… moving on." 😬

Yeah. That bit.

Whether you're telling a personal story, landing a teaching point, or sliding into your call-to-action — how you move between moments can make or break your talk.

Inside my weekly Skills Lab, my clients have been working this — and in this episode, I'm sharing the best bits to help you turn your transitions from clunky to captivating.

What you'll discover:
• Why bad segues make your talk feel like a school play (and how to fix it)
• How to stop saying "anyway…" and start sounding like a pro
• The "bridge words" that glue your talk together seamlessly
• How to move from story to insight (and insight to CTA) without killing the vibe
• The CTA mistake that makes you sound like a sales bot — and what to do instead
• Real-life lab exercises that helped speakers go from stiff to slick in less than 60 minutes

Whether you're prepping for a keynote, pitching your programme from stage, or just want your talk to flow like Netflix, this episode will give you the tools to speak smoother, sell smarter, and sound like a total pro.

Enjoy — and try not to say "anyway" after this. 😉
