7/2/2023 0 Comments Are you doing you?If you didn't answer YES 100% to this question then maybe you could ask yourself: 'Why not?"
Or an even better question would be: "What stops you?" Teaching improv for many years now I have seen many things that stop people from being and expressing themselves such as: fear of not being liked, fear of embarrassing themselves with something they do or say, fear of oversharing, fear of not being good/smart/funny/engaging/charismatic enough, fear of saying the wrong thing, fear of being vulnerable, and the list goes on....... I was very lucky, my Mum is very eccentric and prided herself (and still does) on always being herself and her greatest expectation of me was to do the same. Just to be me. Wholeheartedly. It took me a while to realise how much of a struggle it can be for people to just simply be themselves. It is a phenomenon which has fascinated me my whole life and hence I did a degree in Social Science (behavioural studies) and became a life coach and self-expression specialist for many years. All of my sessions with clients, above all, encouraged them to find and be themselves. Then I found improv. Improv is the savior of self-expression on steroids!!! In all my years of personal development and coaching I have never found anything as quick, holistic and fun as improv when it comes to strengthening self-expression and finding one's voice. Participant after participant and improv client after improv client have regaled stories to me of how improv has changed their life and made them trust and express themselves far more than ever before. As you may or may not know if you read my newsletters or know me I am an improv evangelist! I believe in the power of improv to emancipate even the most lost of voices to a place of inspiration and true expression. I have seen miracles my friends! Hallelujah!!! May the joy be with you! Lindsay. x P.S. If you want to see me expressing myself why not tune into my improvised business podcast with my co-host, the awesome and self-expressive Laura Piccardi. Even if you aren't in business I am sure you will get something out of the tips for authentic living. We always do! banterpreneurs.com copyright 2023 Improv Hub- Lindsay Drummond
