Ever feel like your brain is in a constant game of tug-of-war between clarity and your notifications? You’re not alone, and this week’s Speaking with Confidence episode is for you.
I’m joined by Craig Mattson, communication professor and organizational researcher, for a conversation that’s part public speaking class, part digital detox, and all about powerful communication in a tech-heavy world. Together, we dig into how digital overwhelm is hijacking our attention and what we can do to get it back, without swearing off technology completely.
Craig brings storytelling, research, and real conversations with Gen Z and millennial professionals to the table as we explore:
This isn’t just about public speaking, it’s about becoming a powerful communicator who knows how to show up, stay present, and build real relationships… even in a world of pings, posts, and pressure.
Whether you're a team leader, educator, or just trying to survive your inbox, this episode will help you reclaim your attention and communicate with purpose.
Tune in now and let’s get confident, one conversation at a time.
