Why do I admire this person?
I admire her because she is true to herself when she is having an interview .
Despite the criticism she got she still continue her job as journalism, I admire those kind of person
because she did not care what will people will going say to her as long as she is doing her job.
Like she said on her interview with question What makes a good public speaker or speech?
I think the most effective and powerful speakers speak from the heart. People want authentic speakers
who are sharing their own vulnerabilities. Speeches arent relatable when it feels theyve been written
for you or theyre being read. Great speeches have simple solid sentences that can be remembered.
Strong messages that are easy to understand and leave a mark to the listener. Charisma in public
speaking is a gift but what one can say can be carefully thought of, studied and written in a way that
connects with people.
