Are you addicted to filler words like “um,” “basically,”
“like,” and “so”? Ready to detox?
If so, here’s one exercise that will break you of the habit and maybe even break your spirit a little.
First, find a very enthusiastic member of your team who would find great pleasure in honking the hell out of you. And give them a clown horn ($10 at Academy Sports).
Second, write out all your filler words on a whiteboard or sheet of paper. Don’t know what they are? Ask around - I bet your team knows.
Third, pick a topic. Any ol’ topic will do, really.
Fourth, start talking to a camera while your aforementioned overenthusiastic team member lurks in the background, ready to pierce the silence. Ask them to honk with gusto whenever they hear one of the filler words.
Bonus step: put the recording on Instagram.
P.S.: Special thanks to @grace._.munroe, who enjoyed this exercise a little too much if you ask @will.tv.
When it comes down to it, I’m just a big nerd. 🤣
It was so fun filming with @inglesmarkets and @erinandkelli!
Merry Christmas!

We enjoyed a lovely day filming a commercial for @greenville_technical_college.
The @thelightbridge mirrors were just what we needed for the exterior shots.

One thing was evident during my chat with @gj.lake. He and @a.n.n.i.e_l.a.k.e are on a mission at @crossfitsvl.
In this latest episode of the @fireatwillpodcast we talk about his path to growing a caring community with a purpose greater than just getting fit.
