How to Communicate More Effectively and Lead a Better Life with Michael Hoeppner

Have you ever wondered how the physical act of speaking can improve your communication? Kevin sits down with Michael Chad Hoeppner to discuss the physical nature of communication and exercises we can do to get better.
