Eric Edmies. And I'm here with my co host, David T.S.

Wood.

So another presentation review, and I think it's important to talk about why we share these. And we share these because we want to share them as examples, as learning tools. We want to share them so that you really get a sense of what's possible out there. In this particular case, Martina, she is a very empathetic, healing person who has had a long history of helping other people. That's really been her thing, is that people go to her when they're in pain, when they're suffering, and she's able to hear what's going on for them and guide them through healing, that process. But like many healers, she's really been struggling to deal with her own healing. And in this presentation, we hear about her really coming up against that challenge and guiding us through that. So I think it's going to be. I think this is exciting. This is a good one.

Yeah. She has great strength. And I just want to remind you, as you watch, you know, is put yourself in the store story as you're observing it, and it's going to sort of help you unlock your story, but also observing when you get a chance to watch or listening and picking up on those nuances that you can then take on for yourself as you share your story.

Yeah, absolutely. Take a look at her energy, her cadence, and her pauses. Notice that it's a very different style than some of the other ones that we've done. And then particularly pay attention to the way she finishes. I think you're going to like this a lot. Let's roll it.

Two years ago, doctor told me that I'm gonna die. The other one told me that I have to take out my thyroid, like, immediately. The third one gave me the wrong diagnosis. So can you imagine on what kind of emotional roller coaster I was on? I was feeling all those emotions, like fear, sadness. I was devastated. But above all, I was angry. I was so angry. I was angry at God. I was angry at life. I was angry at me. I was so angry at me. I'm going to tell you something about me. For many years, I work with people. They come to me because I can hear, I can feel, I can see the angels. And I actually teach people how to listen. That voice inside, how to connect with that. Not just angel voice, but their own voice, their soul voice. And I wasn't listening. Two years before that, angels told me, you're not okay. Slow down. And I was like, I don't have time to slow down. In one moment, they told me, don't trust any diagnosis. And when that day come, I was there, the doctor was in front of.

Me.

And my body screamed. My body told me, no, no, this cannot be. And I wasn't listening. I was so afraid I wasn't listening. So for me, that was a very good moment to start to listen. And I did. I shut down all the noises, and I was listening. I was listening my body. And in one moment, I started to speak with my body, and my body responded. I went out in the nature, I started to speak with the nature. I was listening and speaking with wind, with earth. And Mother Earth responded. And just to answer that question that maybe some of you have in your head, we don't have that kind of mushrooms in my country. So I really, really listen. I connected with my own voice. I connected with that voice inside of me. It became sacred to me. And one day, it was the first day of spring, I woke up and I knew, I'm okay. I will survive. And maybe I survived because of this moment right now, me being here on this stage telling you that if you will ignore life, life will start to ignore you. If you will ignore your body, your body will start to ignore you. If you will ignore that voice inside of you. You know you have that voice inside of you. Maybe that will cost you a life.

Wow. You know, there's incredible strength in you, and it's earned, obviously. But there's a word I love. I love the trainers. And I don't see it a lot. I see a lot in this room, but congruency, you know, you're.

You're.

You're. There's an old saying, you know, when. When you believe you're believable. And there's a lot of trainers who talk about things they should never talk about, especially in the money realm. You know, they'll teach you how to be a millionaire, but they have no money.

Right.

But when you talked about that, I was. I was. I believed everything you said, and I could. I could feel it if I shut my eye. Everything. It was just your stature, but it's the belief you have, the congruency. And I think congruency is such A lovely, lovely trait of a great speaker, great trainer, a great humanitarian. So thank you.

I found that you had a very quiet confidence that pulled me in.

And then it was like at the.

End, you just hit us with an exclamation mark.

It was really gorgeous, the whole thing. Headstyle you. The way you've chosen to present yourself, the way you held yourself, the way you moved, the way you spoke, and you ran a really gorgeous and elegant charisma pattern. You walked us in and slowly took us through, and you made us think and we saw stuff and then we had realizations and we did it all with you and your face. Your face guided the process. Like, your eyes change with each emotion that you're having. And it's really clear as you're making eye contact. It's like, this is what we're feeling right now. It was like we're feeling it. It was really excellent. And then you built it into this crescendo. Solid L15 powerful message. Unforgettable. Well done. That really is an important message. You know, anything that you ignore is going to ignore you. You ignore your business, it'll ignore you. Like the way she did that. But it's not just those catchy words. It's. It's that she built a crescendo. She came up and she intensified and her volume increased and her. And her intensity increased. And then she. With that energy, then she's like dropping this truth bomb. If you ignore that voice, it will ignore you. If you ignore your body, it will ignore you. I thought that was such a powerful way to end it. Yeah.

And I think, you know, use that word truth. Isn't it one of the great skills, if to be a congruent, authentic trainer, is to really live in truth and not be afraid of truth. Because not everyone's going to love you. And sometimes we mix that up. Everyone in the audience is going to love you. I've always said to my. My job is not to be loved by an audience. It's to move an audience into their next step. Right.

So, yeah, she has a really nice energy about the way she's presenting, and I think that's important. Again, we talk a lot about this in Speaker Nation is that our job is not to, you know, produce a bunch of clones that are out there presenting exactly according to some formulaic structure so they all, you know, look exactly the same or sound the same. Our job is to help people's authentic personality come out. And you really see that with her here. You know, she's pensive and she's relatable and she's honest and she's authentic. And you can hear and see that in every aspect of that presentation. And I, again, I have to make the point that. And I think we've got a clinic on this, on the podcast or one coming up. But there's a process we call the charisma pattern, which is about building a crescendo, you know, kind of that like building up to the I have a dream moment of a speech. And she does that so elegantly. Building, building, building and builds tension. And that tension gets the audience to listen and opens them. So when they, then when she drops the conclusion, it's received so much more powerfully. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah.

And strength and congruent is beautiful.

Yeah. And once again, what we're talking about here is a personal story, a story that I imagine that many, many of you can relate to. And that's the story of giving but not asking for help. It's the story of focusing on healing others, but maybe ignoring our own healing a little. It's the story of, let's call it mild codependence, if we can go that far. And I think it's a story that many of us that aspire to be teachers, coachers, trainers and that sort of stuff in the world really need to hear. So I want to remind you, her story is so valuable to you. So the question is, which of your stories are valuable to whom? Get out there and tell them. I can't wait to.
