The Eloquent Woman's weekly speaker toolkit

I read a lot about women and public speaking, and post my finds first on The Eloquent Woman on Facebook. But I always collect them here for you on Mondays as well. Here's what I've been reading lately:

• Wait a minute: This video takes a look at the prevalence of women being talked over. It's at the link, and below. On our Facebook page, this was far and away the most popular post last week.

ATTN:

It's time to stop talking over women. 

• Power has nothing to do with it: You can add powerful U.S. House of Representatives Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi to the list of women who get talked over and have to object, this time in a White House meeting with 10 men.
• Your best conversation? Talking to yourself isn't public speaking...and can affect your public speaking. Learn its benefits.
• Did you miss? This week, the blog looked at Want to boost conference attendance? Add women speakers, and Famous Speech Friday shared Susan Bro's moving and powerful eulogy for her daughter who was killed in the Charlottesville riot.
• About the quote: Wisdom from Catherine of Siena.
