From Cringe Footage To Camera Confidence With Marianne Hickman

In this candid and laughter-filled episode of Epic Begins With One Step Forward, Zander Sprague sits down with speaking coach and facilitator Marianne Hickman to unpack the real challenges of professional speaking—both on stage and in the virtual world.

From cringe-worthy old footage to developing true camera connection, Marianne shares her journey with humility and humor. The conversation shifts into the power of curiosity to bridge divides, even in hot-button topics, and touches on AI’s role in the speaking world. Whether you’re a seasoned speaker or just starting out, this episode is packed with insight, heart, and EPIC truths.epicbegins.comFree E-bookApply to be a Guest on My TV show#EPICBeginswith1StepForward, #ZanderSprague, #ProfessionalSpeaking, #PublicSpeaking, #SpeakingCoach
