Our interview guest this week is Dr Shirley Gallagher, currently secretary of Guardian Toastmasters in Cork.
Here is Shirley's bio:
Dr Shirley Gallagher is a big picture sustainability thinker. She is known for helping companies and government agencies to decarbonise their systems. Dr Gallagher is a Researcher with IMR, Chairperson of the Cork based Environmental Charity, CEF, an EU Climate Ambassador, a Climate Reality Leader and a sustainability consultant. Shirley initially became interested in environmental issues after the disastrous Chernobyl explosion (1986). This interest led her to gaining a PhD (Ulster University 1995) in the management and measurement of contaminants in a brown field site ‘An Investigation of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in a Belfast Gasworks Site’. Shirley is an ISO auditor, specialising in testing, calibration, quality, Health & Safety, energy and environmental standards for private and government agencies.
Shirley remains passionate about science in every sense of the word. One of the reasons she joined Toastmasters (2012) was to engage, enthuse and educate people in climate change. She has coordinated and led numerous projects within Toastmasters including an 8-week Speechcraft (Public Speaking Course). Developing a methodology to upskill environmental professionals in the green economy began in 2005, when she began organising conferences on behalf of the Environmental Sciences of Ireland (ESAI). Co-founding Enviroskillnet in 2007 and after the recession, pivoting to Greenworks Ireland as a consortium in green skills development, along with facilitation for Cork Environmental Forum (CEF) in Global Action Plan, and greener living programmes.
Her interest in HVAC and building performances is as a result of climate awareness and the need for energy efficiency in buildings. She has worked as part of the business development teams in insulation firms Grainger Energy Solutions and Ecocel and with the HVAC company, Sirus, Dr Gallagher worked on the Horizon Europe R&D project, IMPRESS as lead, developing business models, software development, measuring building performance before, during and after deep retrofits. As well as developing a software system for managing F-Gas recovery as part of the maintenance and end of life procedures.

From "Charisma on Demand" YouTube channel, here are five habits that can destroy your confidence.
"Every single day, we do something that are fantastic for our confidence and we do others that aren't so good — they drag it down and destroy it. The problem is we can't always tell which of those is which. And that's why in this video, I want to show you five very common behaviors — some of which I bet you are doing — that are secretly destroying your confidence because if you can remove these from your life, it's dramatic how your self-esteem and your confidence will skyrocket. So the first one that I've had a very, very first hand experience with was staying in a situation that you really dislike."

Luvvie Ajayi Jones isn't afraid to speak her mind or to be the one dissenting voice in a crowd, and neither should you. "Your silence serves no one," says the writer, activist and self-proclaimed professional troublemaker. In this bright, uplifting talk, Ajayi Jones shares three questions to ask yourself if you're teetering on the edge of speaking up or quieting down -- and encourages all of us to get a little more comfortable with being uncomfortable.

A 10-minute speech that changes life in so many ways - Elizabeth Velasquez
Elizabeth Anne Velásquez ( born March 13, 1989) is an American motivational speaker, activist, author, and YouTuber. She was born with an extremely rare congenital disease called Marfanoid–progeroid–lipodystrophy syndrome that, among other symptoms, prevents her from accumulating body fat and gaining weight. Her conditions resulted in bullying during her childhood. During her teenage years, she faced cyberbullying, which ultimately inspired her to take up motivational speaking.

Jia Jiang was the recipient of the 2019 Golden Gavel given by Toastmasters International to a speaker of outstanding merit. This is his TED talk and this is what is said on the TED website:
Jia Jiang is the owner of Rejection Therapy, a website that provides inspiration, knowledge and products for people to overcome their fear of rejection. He is also the CEO of Wuju Learning, a company that teaches people and trains organizations to become fearless through rejection training. In 2015, he authored a bestselling book, Rejection Proof: How I Beat Fear and Became Invincible Through 100 Days of Rejection.
Several years after Jiang began his career in the corporate world, he took a life-altering risk and stepped into the unknown world of entrepreneurship. His result was everyone's biggest fear: rejection. This was the catalyst that set Jiang on the path to his true calling.
To conquer the fear of rejection, Jiang embarked on a personal quest and started a blog, 100 Days of Rejection Therapy. His journey revealed a world that was hidden in plain sight -- a world where people are much kinder than we imagine. He discovered that rejection can be much less painful than we believe and that the fear of rejection is much more destructive than we know.
Jiang grew up in Beijing, China and migrated to the United States at age 16. He holds a Bachelor of Computer Science from Brigham Young University and a Master of Business Administration from Duke University.

From the Charisma on Comman YouTube channel, here is Kevin Hart's 3 Secrets to Hilarious Storytelling - YouTube link.
Kevin Hart is one of the funniest men alive. Whether in interviews with Ellen Degeneres or George Lopez, or his standup specials, he tells absolutely hilarious stories. In fact, most of his standup routine consists of him telling stories. But he does it in such a way that hooks an audience and never lets go, partially because he is able to include so many jokes.
It's not that Kevin Hart's life is inherently more interesting than the rest of ours. He is just a better storyteller. The good news is that storytelling is not something you're born with or you're not. Anyone can learn to tell the kind of funny stories that made Kevin famous. You just need to know the most important pieces.
While there are many storytelling techniques and styles that will enable you to captivate an audience, ultimately, the best storytellers share a few things in common: they get attention, they commit, and they are constantly refining their craft. These fundamentals can be used in any kind of story but they are especially useful for funny stories.
So if you want to know how to tell a story better or you are just are interested in what makes Kevin Hart's stories so engaging, check out the video.

Here is a link to the full speech of which this is an extract.

From YouTube this is a speech by actor Wentworth Miller which is entitled "The Speech that will make you Cry". Don't let the title put you off - this is a really good speech with some very good techniques. We recommend not to watch the YouTube version as the music and visuals are very distracting - concentrate on the message and the rhetorical devices used.
