About Me
- Beth Noymer Levine
- I created SmartMouth Communications to help people convey their ideas and messages with clarity and to dispel the unnecessary worrying that comes with speaking and presenting. Having worked both agency-side, for public relations firms in New York, and corporate-side in Atlanta, my experience spans a couple of geographic areas, a couple of decades, and more than a couple of audience types. I'm now operating out of Salt Lake City, helping executives, athletes, politicians, engineers, doctors, lawyers, and even fire chiefs, with messaging and delivery!

Beth,
ReplyDeleteThis is my 3rd year in Toastmasters in Beverly MA, and 2nd year as VP of Membership. I can't agree with you more on this quote. Being prepared to speak extemporaneously is one of the hardest things to do well. Thank you for this useful quote. Have a great weekend. Roberta
Thanks, Roberta! This quote supports a point I like to make often, which is that no one is really a "natural" ... the best of the best work at it!
