Speaking Topics, Promotion Material, and Suggested Questions

1) The Energy behind Charisma: The Secret Sauce for Authentic Connections in Business (and in Life)

Promo Copy:

Calling all speakers, business leaders, coaches and experts ready to amp up your message so it truly lands. Did you know that the energy you bring to everything you do is what matters most? Whether you are speaking from a stage, on a screen, to a small group or one-on-one, how people see experience you in unspoken ways can push people away or draw them to you. “Energy” is more than healing modalities like acupuncture or body work — it shows up in the stories you tell, both in terms of WHAT you say and HOW you say it. It is the combined energy of both that makes your message land. Vicki Dello Joio has guided hundreds of clients to step into the spotlight, speak their message with passion, presence and power so they can serve people in the ways they know they were born to do.

You’ll learn how to

  • Stand Out as the “Go To” Expert in your field
  • Get Your Glow On from the inside out
  • Command the stage, screen or room while staying authentic
  • Infuse your presence with irresistible energy to magnetize your ideal clients.
  • Explore techniques to keep your mind alert (even when you have stage fright)
  • Uncommon Ways to Amplify the Power of your Presence (who knew that qigong, ancient Chinese practices for energy management, could make all the difference?)

Potential Questions to guide our conversation

  1. Why do you do this work and how did you get into it?
  2. Why qigong and other martial arts?
  3. Why is it important for speakers, entrepreneurs and business owners to pay attention to their energy?

  5. What are some tips to manage stage fright?
  6. Can you share some success stories?
  7. What makes people lean forward when a speaker is on stage?
  8. Why do stories matter?
  9. What are some of the things that give a story that wow factor?
  10. What are the “Don’t dos” you need to avoid when telling a personal story from the stage?
  11. What are some embodied tools we can use to amplify the power of our presence while still honoring the "shy self"?

Transformation is the process of a lifetime, based on the choices we make each and every moment. When our energy is blocked, emotions run amok, body-mind-heart connection gets disconnected, we do NOT make good choices. Certainly not in the moment nor for living our fullest, most Joy-fueled life.

Vicki walks you across that bridge, teaching you how to work with your energy — internally and outwardly — to remove those blocks, still those run-amok emotions, and bring body-mind-heart into balance. All in a New York Minute!

Vicki offers programs, practices and personal coaching drawn from her 40 years of qigong energy practice and 40 years in theater as writer, director and actor, with some woo, renegade playfulness, and Joy added in. Working with her moves you to a life where…

  • You feel better, laugh more, and worry a LOT less
  • You feel balanced, prepared to enjoy the best and move through the worst
  • You direct your intention to create inspired results in everything you do
  • You choose moment-to-moment from a deep place of clarity, grace and ease
  • You expand your capacity to achieve your full potential and feel…Joy-fueled
