    Anyone that’s struggling with writing a toast that needs to be done really quickly from when they tap on this video: start at 3:00 minutes

    For quick reference:
    1) 7 seconds: a story or lesson about that person
    2) why we are here
    3) why you are giving the speech
    4) story with struggle conflict and resolution
    5) one shareable truth

    😥😥😥shooo!!! You make it sound oh so easy. I was asked to do a toast at my sisters birthday party on the 2 of October 2021 and thats in front of very well speaking english guests. Prior to listening to you I was in a panic state and already sweating. But I look forward to the challenge now that I have listened to you. 👌👌👌

    How is he qualified to teach us about speeches when his own has no substance for the first four minutes? Filling time with fluff/jokes automatically makes you a bad speaker. Because 80% of the audience is going to tune out after minute two.
