Episode 002 – A conversation with my dear friend Debra Fine, a renowned expert in conversation and networking skills, a motivational speaker, and a bestselling author. Listen to this great show to gain wisdom, many conversational tools, learn about the "magic sauce," and enjoy Debra's wonderful sense of humor.
We begin the conversation discussing Debra's early life and establishing roots in Colorado, followed by her early career and pivot to motherhood. She shares wisdom for creating building blocks through experience and skillset development in order to establish a foundation in a passion career.
Then we discuss Debra's path into teaching 'small talk' and having an epiphany moment. One opportunity leads to another, and her training career takes off. Throughout this portion of the show Debra shares key tools for conversation skill development, which can be critical in this epidemic of loneliness we face today or in business networking.
Next we learn about her journey with book publishing and the tremendous success found by hustling. Debra shares how Small Talk is the appetizer for any relationship. We also discuss her journey as a motivational speaker.
Finally, we round out the show learning about Debra's adventures with Rotary International and also hearing some final thoughts about building community and her next adventure.
