Laurie-Ann Murabito: From Painfully Shy to Public Speaking Coach- How Accepting a Challenge Can Lead to Unlimited Success
Have you ever looked back and recalled a defining moment or event that took your life or career in an entirely different direction? Sometimes, it can take years to recognize it with greater understanding, but when it hits you, it all seems to make sense. Former shy girl Laurie-Ann Murabito experienced this firsthand when she challenged herself to connect with more people, led her on a journey to honing her skills, becoming a public speaker, and coaching others to do the same. This week on Journeys Through Change, my guest Laurie-Ann Murabito and I discuss her path from being painfully shy to becoming a public speaking coach!
