UNLOCKING POTENTIAL: HOW NIKKI DEVELOPS HER PERSONAL GROWTH
b'
Welcome to Wes\\u2019 first interview in the new studio! Wes checks in with his good friend Nikki Pavlovich one year after their last interview.\\xa0 Much has happened\\xa0 since then.
Nikki is now a part of Wes\\u2019 network by helping him with his podcast. She writes the show notes for the episodes and shorts and posts the shorts to YouTube. Nikki was an English major in college, and is a writer. She developed writers\\u2019 block some years ago and is working on getting past it. She is slowly getting back to writing creatively, but a busy life\\xa0 keeps her from doing it regularly right now.\\xa0
Wes is reminded of a thought that optimism won\\u2019t make you successful, but pessimism guarantees no success. A mental block can be an old way of thinking. For example \\u201c What if it doesn\\u2019t work?\\u201d Instead of \\u201cWhat if it does?\\u201d Nikki keeps challenging herself to keep growing.
One way she\\u2019s challenging herself is through Toastmasters.\\xa0 Last year, her best friend suggested she join to help with public speaking since she and Wes will be doing a radio show. On November 1, 2022, Nikki joined Toastmasters. This has helped her gain confidence in public speaking and meeting new people. The people she\\u2019s met through Toastmasters are amazing and supportive of her efforts. \\xa0
Nikki gave her first speech at Toastmasters and ended up winning Best Speaker. She was very surprised, but Wes was not because he knew how much she prepared for it. He says he bets others are not surprised either.\\xa0 She and Wes discuss the importance of doing the work and letting that show how good a person is. There is no need to brag, but be proud of the hard work put in.
To prepare for speeches, Nikki organizes what she wants to say in an introduction, body of the speech, and the conclusion.\\xa0 After rehearsing the speech a few times, she then records the speech on her phone mostly for time.\\xa0
Growth has been obtained through Toastmasters by meeting new people and getting used to getting up in front of people and talking. She gets lots of support and great feedback from the other members. She is getting more and more comfortable with the process.
Another way\\xa0 she is growing is using the Enlifted Method. She did an Instagram live with Mark England the co-creator of the Enlifted method.\\xa0
Nikki is looking forward to further improving her public speaking through Toastmasters and getting out of her comfort zone more. She wants to continue to learn from Wes and the network he\\u2019s created.\\xa0
