What if becoming a better communicator has less to do with perfecting your delivery and more to do with reconnecting with yourself?
Ann Keil Dux, a former television journalist turned communication coach and consultant, joins Dr. Amy Athey to explore the connection between self-awareness, self-expression, and authentic communication. Drawing on her experience reporting live on television, Ann shares why confidence is built through repetition, how pressure disconnects us from our expertise, and why trying to perform confidence often gets in the way of genuine connection.
Ann and Amy discuss the challenges of showing up on camera, from virtual interviews to short-form video, and why the pressure to appear polished can make us less effective. Ann shares practical strategies for managing nerves, including box breathing, and explains how identifying what you want your audience to feel can transform the way you communicate.
The conversation also gets personal as Ann reflects on her cancer diagnosis just five weeks before her wedding and the lessons she learned about trust, human connection, and navigating life's hardest moments.
