🎤 Speaking with Presence: My April Journey into Confident Communication

By

Some blog posts come from excitement. Others from reflection.
Tonight’s post comes from something even deeper—a decision.

A decision to speak with more clarity, more grace, and more confidence.


🌸 Where This Began

The past few weeks have felt full and beautiful—baking for my EDTC project, learning new tools, attending a networking event with incredible leaders from SGI, SaskPower, Innovation Saskatchewan and more. I showed up, I listened, and somewhere in those conversations… I realized something:

I have something to say.
But I often wait for the “perfect” moment.
I often whisper when I want to speak.
And sometimes, I let the room decide if I’m worthy of being heard.

This month, I want to change that narrative.


✨ April Skill of the Month: Confident Communication

Inspired by Bhavana Singh and her graceful, unapologetic presence, I’m launching a new layer of Project Poonam — a space where I not only write with intention, but speak with it too.

Bhavana’s idea of:

✨ “Record. Review. Rate.”
is now going to guide me—gently, weekly, honestly.

So here’s the plan:

  • I will choose 1 small communication goal each week
  • I will record a short video (yes, I’m finally doing it!)
  • And I’ll reflect here—not to impress, but to grow

🎯 Week 1 Intention: Speak Slowly. Mean What I Say.

Whether it’s a short conversation, a blog video, or reading aloud to my child—I want to slow down and speak with presence, not pressure.

It’s not about being perfect.
It’s about being clear.
Kind.
And heard.


đź’­ Why This Matters

As a mother, a learner, a woman rebuilding her career—I want to show my children and my readers that voice matters.
That you don’t have to be loud to be powerful.
You don’t have to be “ready” to begin.

You just need to start.
And this, right here, is my start.


📹 What’s Next?

Tomorrow, I’ll be recording my first short video for this blog.
A simple check-in.
A brave beginning.

If you’re on your own confidence journey—join me.
Let’s grow out loud, together.


💬 What helps you speak with confidence—even on unsure days? I’d love to hear your voice in the comments.
