You might say the right things, but if your shoulders slump, your eyes avoid the audience, or your hands fidget nervously—your message gets lost in translation. The truth is that your body language is your first language in public speaking. Great speakers don’t just speak—they radiate presence. They stand tall with purpose. They move with intention. They own the stage without saying a word. This is the magic of non-verbal communication, and it’s what separates a good speaker from an unforgettable one.
