The Toastmasters Podcast with Greg Gazin
The Toastmasters Podcast is like a radio talk show featuring interviews with Toastmasters usually featured in the Toastmaster magazine. The purpose of the podcast is to amplify the magazine - to dig deeper or to put a voice to a face or written wordBut unlike a radio show, a podcast is on the Internet, and available, for free, to anyone in the world with an Internet connection, and a connected device capable of playing audio. 250+ episodes are at ToastmastersPodcast.comThe Toastmasters Podcast is co-produced by Toastmasters International and Archieboy Holdings, LLC, for our global audience of Toastmasters and those interested in public speaking and leadership.

[29:31] When you hear, “Speaking is much more enjoyable than being punched in the face,” there’s no doubt that everyone would likely agree with that profound statement and immediately want to hear more. In our latest episode, Hosts Greg and Ryan speak with Jessica (Jess) Roper a two-time English kickboxing champion who can attest to that from her personal experience. Jess shares with us a little about the trials and tribulations of her personal, professional and Toastmasters journey and through successes in the kickboxing ring and on the speaking stage, offers some sage advice on how we can develop a Champion’s Mindset.

 

 

Jess is a newer Toastmaster and member of the Sussex Online Speakers club in England, giving her Ice Breaker only a few months ago and has already won her Area speech competition.  Jess also hosts a local radio show called The Champion’s Corner. 

Jess is featured in the June 2022 issue of the Toastmaster Magazine with the article, Fighting Spirit: Kickboxing champion aims high in the sports and speaking arenas.
