Elise Hu gets real with us about the preparation and challenges that go into taking complex ideas and molding them to fit a tightly delivered speech.\n\nElise is an award-winning journalist, podcaster, and ‌author based in Los Angeles.

She spent time at Vice News and NPR, serving as their first-ever Seoul bureu chief. She released her first book, Flawless: Lessons in Looks and Culture from the K-Beauty Capital in 2023.\n \nElise and I discuss: \nHow to react when the audience response isn’t what you expected\nWhat goes into crafting an exceptional talk, tightly told\nOur shared love for Anthony Bourdain (I know, shocker)\nThe “peak/end rule” in storytelling and journalism\nAnd the power of a callback. \nWe also unpack why observation is the key to being a great storyteller, and why vulnerability and honesty are essential for any truly compelling speech.\n\nI imagine you (like me) will be endlessly enthralled by Elise’s curiosity, wisdom, and charm.
