In this episode of Hidden Potential Podcast, Sarah has a fascinating conversation with Ed Reay. Ed is a coach who works with several clients, helping them to write better, create better content, and tell stories in a more effective way. Today, he talks about what most people struggle with when it comes to writing captions that work and how to be an expert in storytelling, making your audience resonate with your speech.
Sarah and Ed also discuss the importance of living a lifestyle that allows you to do the things you want. For example, when we fix our vision too hard on a goal and on a certain amount of money we want to hit, we sometimes forget all the things we would be giving up in order to “get there”. Ed also talks about his spiritual side and the many benefits of having a positive thinking and a generous attitude. Tune in!
