Speaking in a Virtual World: Recent Episodes

Jean Hamilton-Fford

Come and join us as we explore aspects of speaking in a virtual world. Speaking on a stage and speaking in the virtual world pose distinct differences that make life interesting for those who speak and present - whether publicly or professionally.

Jean speaks publicly and professionally. She is well-known for her public speaking skills in Toastmasters and she is now venturing into the professional speaking arena. In this podcast, Jean will be speaking with other speakers and presenters to find out more about the life of a speaker/presenter and their challenges and victories!

Taruna Chauhan started her business because she had previously worked in the NHS and knew what worked in terms of meeting CQC compliance. She added coaching and mentoring to her toolbox as her clients also needed this as well as support with compliance. She likes to think of herself as the accidental coach as she did not realise she was coaching until it was pointed out to her. She is a life long learner and an NLP Master Practioner as well as an MBit coach.

Ell Graniel has over 25 years’ experience in the neuroscience behind our synapse, receptor, and reward centers of the brain. She has her degree in Communication, training and certifications in Neuro-linguistic Programming (NLP), negotiation, personality type predictors, and authored three international best-selling books. Her most recent “The Team Whisperer—Successfully Lead a Cross Generation, Race, and Gender Team” focuses specifically on mastering communication.

Ell’s passion for inspiring others began over thirty-five years ago when she became a certified group fitness instructor, manager, and key-note speaker for such influential companies as 24-Hour Fitness and Beach Body.

In 1996, she began training with the International Academy of Self-Knowledge (IASK) where she became one of only a dozen people on the planet certified to implement the process of Transformational Meditation (TfM).

Shortly after, Ell earned a B.A. degree in Communication and founded Truespeak, her unique business, specializing in inter- and intra-personal communication, which trains how to get what you want just by asking. The success of her coaching comes from the blend of the relationship between Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), the different languages of learning styles, and neuroscience that has been gleaned from decades of research and application. Her motto is, “Say what you want. The truth is in you.”

Ell lives dually in Honolulu, Hawaii and Mazatlan, Mexico, where she enjoys glorious sunsets and her infamous disco-ball collection.

Ladey is delighted to be invited to speak with Jean on the OBDT podcast. Ladey is a Christian who wrote her first faith book, 'Unfrozen–How to melt your heart from Life’s Disappointment, Disillusionment and Discouragement by Opening the door and stepping into God’s warming Light' in 2014.

She is an international Speaker and Lecturer who has written eleven books, including a children’s series about a little unicorn co-authored with her daughter, Abbirose, and has published many non-fiction books for other authors. In 2016, following many queries from ‘wannabe’ authors, she set up the family business in publishing and has learned so much. She is always happy to share this learning. Ladey Adey Publications was born and is expected to publish 100 author’s book by 2025.

Ladey has been featured on the ALLi (Alliance for Independent Authors) blog, and is the host of the Ladey Adey Show, a podcast all about books. She started her professional career in the 1980s as a typesetter, layout artist and designer for technical publications. She later worked in the charity sector as CEO and Chairwoman but has now returned to her first love–books. Ladey has a heart for dyslexic writers and publishes their books for them.

In 2022, she founded The Book Academy–an online book club on steroids! Here, members read one book a month and discuss it from a perspective of writing style. They interview established authors and learn more about wordcraft (and of course networking as reflected in her latest book). Ladey has always loved meeting people, learning about their business, and finding ways for mutual support. She was delighted to meet Jean through a referral; she is thrilled to become a member of OBDT and use the values based on The Go-Giver.
