This week, Steven talks to one of the most popular comedians, DJ’s and television presenters in the country, Melvin Odoom, perhaps best known for winning the Strictly Come Dancing Christmas Special in 2016.
Melvin joins Steven to talk about what it takes to be a presenter, how to conquer your fears, and how best to connect in a new, digital world.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
One of the most important ingredients in being a presenter of any kind, is to have a burning passion – an intense love for what you’re doing.
In general, those who are the most successful are the ones who’ve conquered their fears about communicating with others. Prepare and develop as you go along.
Mistakes feel like the end of the world to us, but to others, they are tiny, forgettable moments. Never be afraid to fail. Others are not judging you as harshly as you’re judging yourself.
Social media can be a blessing and a curse. It can be used as a tool, but we must remember that it is just that. It needs to serve us.
BEST MOMENTS
'Communication is key. You have to love what you do’
‘It doesn’t have to be right. It just has to be funny’
‘If you’re a salesman, then you’re actually a performer’
‘As human beings we forget that our phones are a tool’

ABOUT THE HOST
The Steven Sulley Study is my take on success. My view is you should have multiple focuses to be a well-rounded individual. Success shouldn't be just one thing like money, for example, it should also consist of a healthy fit lifestyle and thriving relationships.
As a person who has made a success in life and also made huge cock-ups I feel I can offer suggestions and tips on how to become successful or at least start your pursuit. My 'Study' has taken resources from reading and education plus being around, my perception, of successful people and I, know a lot of successful people from all walks of life.
My 'Study' coming from my experiences in business, investing, sales (my core background), training, boxing and education has enabled me to become well rounded and successful and I will help you in these key areas too.
