From the show notes:
In this week's episode of Ongoing Mastery: Presenting & Speaking, Kirsten gives Sarah Atlee tips for a smoother experience as a podcast guest. Once your lighting is all set and you’re making eye contact with the camera, think about what might go wrong and be prepared with alternatives, just in case. They also discover that they’re both fans of online role-playing games!
Key take-aways:
Have a genuine conversation, don’t just deliver your planned talking points
Know how your material intersects with the podcast’s audience
Consider having a QR code for your website, etc, rather than sharing a long web address
