The title is quite haunting. Words Without Body Language. Isn't that what we're doing on social media, texting and emailing? Using words without body language. Which is why I love being on the radio. You can hear the words but can't see the body talking. It invites listeners into what's called Theater Of The Mind. We are a wordy generation. I often wonder if it's not because of a dislike for silence. The only way to fill in the blank is with words. Pick any word. Ouch that one hurt. Can't take it back. The messages we get on social media have a huge impact on a lot of our lives. There's more news on Facebook then NBC Channel 36 at five. On this podcast we leap into the subject of using our words as well as body language. I'm always fascinated with the way people pound their thumbs into the face of a smartphone and the message may not even be as dramatic as their body language was putting it out there. My father tried to use his words when I was a child. I wouldn't listen. Not until he'd show up on the scene reaching for his belt. He never once brought that thing down on me. It was his body language that spoke louder than his words. So I ask about what you're projecting. Do your words go along with what your body is saying? How do you get them to work better together? While listening to the podcast Slow Burn season 2 about Bill Clinton a close friend of his said that the former President had a way of making sure he looked into the eyes of every person in the room. It gave them the assurance that he was talking to them and not around them. He gained this ability by not only using his words but his body language was directed one hundred percent in your moment of now. I personally love Billie Eilish. Her creative spirit is extremely vibrant and yet to some she comes across as depressed or disconnected. When you listen to her words in interviews you can't help but get tapped into the reason why she's become this new age generation sensation. Her body language though speaks a different tone. I was with Sammy Jaye yesterday, The youngest podcaster ever on iHeart Radio. She used the words shared on podcasting to help get her through some extremely dark times. It helped her so much that at the age of 13 she began her own episodes that have led her to some of the most iconic interviews and conversations on the planet. What are you doing with your words? Are you just trying to fill silence? What if the only thing you had was body language?
