Before that first recording, I spent years chasing animage of who I thought I should be. But the moment I introduced myvery first guest, something shifted. I found my voice—and more importantly, my purpose.This series is about meaningful connection,mutual growth, and the beauty of learning from each other’s stories. I’m soglad you’re here. Let’s meet today’s guest.About Paul Quinn https://bigaskbook.com/about-paul-quinn/) leans on my background as a former corporate trainer, marketing writer, professional actor, and (actively) presentation coach. But I'm writing now to tell you more about who I am, not just what i do.I live for those liberating "Aha!" moments when I suddenly become aware of some habit of thinking or behavior that had caused me to put artificial limitations around my life choices.And I love being a witness to--or even a catalyst for--those "Aha!" moments in others. Helping people notice and move through their (mostly self-created) obstacles is the passionate focus of my book, talks, blog, and interviews.That said, I'm not a psychologist, social worker, or business thought leader. Nor am I a Life Coach in the formal sense of the term. I don't even call myself an "expert" on asking (a distinction I respectfully reserve for academics).So what do I have to offer as your guest?I am an observant, empathetic, and articulate person who is intensely curious about human behavior, who studies and learns from it, and who communicates what I learn with clarity, warmth, and humor in my book, blog, and talks. My humor is based not on jokes but on my perspective which, in the best cases, keeps the conversation light and relatable even as we explore things in depth.I offer you an entertaining and informative mix of the latest research in communication and persuasion ... unforgettable "big ask" stories from some of the 80+ people I interviewed for my book, from celebs and CEOs to everyday dreamers and achievers ... my own journey of writing the book ... tips for your listeners to make their next request successful ... and a whole lot more.We could also create fun interactive opportunities for your listeners by having them share in real time their biggest asks -- whether it was asking for help, opportunities, exceptions, second chances, clarity, advice, feedback, or truth.So, here's my Big https://www.linkedin.com/in/paul-quinn-bigaskbook/Ask -- mhttps://bigaskbook.com/https://www.facebook.com/PaulQuinnAuthor/https://www.linkedin.com/in/paul-quinn-bigaskbook/kh.yesican1@gmail.comIf you are looking for a Personal Coach contact Karen at #YESICAN coaching with Karenkh.yesican1@gmail.com440 526 1530
