Today after my radio show I was on my way to a coffee shop (to write something wise for this blog) when I was repeatedly stopped by strangers asking, “Who was the lady on the radio this morning?”
That ‘girl’ was motivational speaker and business coach, Alecia Huck.
What did she do that made so many people ask who she was?
Alecia kept her interview simple AND she had fun doing it! Her personality blasted through the telephone line and she connected with the listeners.
She told people to lighten up and stop stressing.
And she said that if you have a to-do list of 25 or more things that have to get done—well burn it, ’cause you will never get it done! (ALECIA GAVE LISTENERS THE PERMISSION TO STOP FEELING LIKE FAILURES EVERYDAY THAT THEY DON’T GET THE LIST DONE.)
She talked about being in the groove when everything you do is feeling good. You know, when everything you touch is gold and you feel good—she called this: “Feeling like a rock star.” (MY LISTENERS CONNECTED WITH HER AND COMPLETELY UNDERSTOOD THE FEELING.)
She talked about building yourself up when no one else will. (LOOK IN THE MIRROR AND SAY TO YOURSELF, “I’M A GENIUS” OR “I’M HOT.”)
Finally she made us laugh by saying that even when things go bad, go back to building yourself up. The example she used was: Even if you drop your cell phone in the toilet, say to yourself, “This might be a huge problem if I wasn’t so HOT!” Haha!
Everyone in the radio station is now walking around saying, “You’re HOT” or “You’re a GENIUS,” and smiling. And this is all because of Alecia’s great interview where she talked to the listeners’ like she was talking to her girlfriends in a bar!
My final words are:
It always comes back to how well you do the interview and how you interact with the audience.
Listen to her interview below and become an Alecia Fan!
