Transcription

Why does it matter to remove the clutter words? You know, the like, as, um, why does it matter?

I'll give you an example of it. You know, like, um, if I, you know, was uh taking you through like the um core uh, you know, voc foundations, you know, like uh, it decreases the clarity of the message. It's okay to have some. Be human. I get it. It's not about none, but it's about having some and not have your speech littered with it.

Is it easy to overcome that? Yeah, it is. Because to get rid of that bad habit, you just need to learn a new habit. And the new habit is pause. So the very moment you feel like saying um, we're not lagging, we're just pausing, right? You pause. And that's why as part of the vocal foundations, you have to learn to be comfortable with what we're doing right now. Just pausing. And it's okay.
