What? Can you repeat that?
It always surprises me when my partner says that to me.
In my mind, and to my ear, I spoke clearly… but…. (mumble) it obviously didn’t come out that way because my partner often asks me to repeat myself.

Oh no. It’s happening to me. The lazy mouth.

You’re about to learn a quick exercise, that you can do almost anywhere, at anytime - it’s a technique that many professional broadcasters use before they go on air. It’s fun & silly, so make sure to watch this video to the end, so you can benefit from it.

So last week I MCed a non-profit gala called Untapped. They find employment for diverse groups such as people with disabilities, First Nations, and new immigrants. I was also interviewing the CEO of VanCity on stage, Tamara Vrooman so I wanted to do a good job.

Now I used to MC events all the time, but I’m out of practice. My mouth is out of shape! And I’m getting lazy with how I enunciate. This is bad news brown.

When you communicate, the objective is to be understood. And when you boil it down to the basics, it’s how you move your mouth.

Think of your mouth like an instrument. It needs tuning. It needs conditioning. It needs practice.
So how can you fine tune your mouth like an instrument, before you give a speech, or record a video?

Step one: get a pen.
Step two: put it in your mouth
Step three: say the alphabet

Try it with me!
See how that feels?
It stretches your mouth. Your mouth works harder.
And that’s what you want.

People have one chance to hear what you have to say.
So make your mouth work harder, over-enunciate your words, and keep your mouth in tip top shape.

Do you understand?

With a lazy mouth, you risk being misunderstood… or even worse, not heard at all.
