Note: This episode was recorded when this show was known as Human Internet Theory.
In this episode, I offer a different approach to "adding more charisma" (that's certainly a loaded phrase...) for your videos and podcasts. Here I'm thinking of personality kinda like a multi-channel audio mixer. The goal is not to turn up the volume on everything (all the channels) at once, or throw it away to create a new, fake persona. The goal is to find the right mix of your genuine traits, and turn up the volume on some of them.
I introduce four key principles that form the foundation of authentic charisma. These are authenticity, humble confidence, realistic problem solving, and curiosity. I explain what each of these principles means and how you can apply them to your on-camera or on-microphone presence.
To help you put this into practice, I also walk you through a simple acting exercise. This exercise is designed to help you find and feel your unique energy in your own body, away from the pressure of the camera while you figure out what channels to use. Oof that analogy.
