Episode 256: Rohullah Hassani - The Art of Public Speaking

In this episode of The Limitless Podcast with Nick Jonsson, Nick is joined by Rohullah Hassani, Founder and CEO of United Leaders Global, for a powerful and practical conversation on The Art of Public Speaking. Together, they explore what it truly takes to connect with audiences, communicate with impact, and inspire action—whether you’re speaking in a boardroom, on a stage, or in everyday leadership moments.

Public speaking is often seen as a performance skill reserved for confident extroverts. Rohullah challenges this belief by reframing public speaking as a leadership discipline rooted in authenticity, clarity, and purpose. Drawing on his global experience working with leaders across cultures and industries, he explains that great speakers are not born—they are built through intention, preparation, and self-awareness.

Throughout the episode, Rohullah shares practical insights into crafting messages that resonate. He emphasizes the importance of understanding your audience before focusing on what you want to say. When speakers shift their mindset from “How do I sound?” to “What does my audience need?”, communication becomes more natural, relevant, and impactful. Rohullah also highlights how storytelling plays a crucial role in turning abstract ideas into memorable experiences that people can relate to and act upon.

Another key theme of the discussion is presence. Rohullah explains how stage presence isn’t about being loud or dramatic, but about being fully grounded, confident, and aligned with your message. He offers practical techniques to manage nerves, build confidence, and use body language, tone, and pauses effectively. Rather than trying to eliminate fear, he encourages leaders to learn how to work with it—transforming nervous energy into clarity and conviction.

Nick and Rohullah also explore how public speaking connects deeply with leadership and influence. Every time a leader communicates—whether in a meeting, presentation, or difficult conversation—they are shaping trust and direction. Rohullah shares how mastering communication skills can elevate leadership credibility, strengthen relationships, and create alignment within teams and organizations.

This episode is especially valuable for leaders, trainers, coaches, and professionals who want to communicate more confidently and authentically. Whether you’re delivering keynote speeches or leading small group conversations, The Art of Public Speaking offers practical tools and mindset shifts to help you unlock the power of your voice and turn your message into meaningful impact.
