3 Ways to Remain Authentically Human

People are using A.I. for research, creating action figures, and even storytelling. Keep reading if you want to double down on being authentically human whether you’re speaking on stage, in a podcast, or on a radio show. Let’s dive into this week’s Beyond The 615 Column, article # 184.

3 WAYS TO REMAIN AUTHENTICALLY HUMAN

1. Talk like a human and not like how an Internet story is written – replace newsy, formal words with words that you would use with a friend at a coffee shop.
 
2. Limit facts and add emotion – facts activate the left side of someone’s brain. Engage the right side of a listener’s brain with vivid stories about your own or others’ experiences.
 
3. Learn to be a good listener – if you’re on a team show or interact with your audience, be mindful of how you can help them move their story forward without stealing the spotlight from them.

HERE’S THE TAKEAWAY


Be authentically human by talking like you, showing emotion, and pausing to listen before reacting.
