Don't Miss These Big Takeaways:
  • Jurors, when threatened, are commonly prompted into a survival response.
  • By understanding what threatens them, you can help to counteract their "fight, flee, or freeze" instinct.

TRANSCRIPTION

You’re listening to “From Hostage to Hero” Podcast, episode number 1.

​Welcome to “From Hostage to Hero,” a podcast where trial lawyers learn how to free themselves and the jury. And now your host, Sari de la Motte…

Welcome to the “From Hostage to Hero Podcast,” my name is Sari de la Motte and I’m known as “The Attorney Whisperer.” I couldn’t be more excited about the launch of this brand-new podcast as my fans have been asking me for more audio content and I’m happy I can finally oblige!

For those of you who are new to my work, allow me to tell you a little bit about myself; first and foremost, I am -not- a trial lawyer. I am a communications consultant that specializes in helping attorneys communicate with jurors. I work with speakers of all kinds but I primarily work with trial attorneys. I’m based in Portland, Oregon but work all over the United States and Canada. My clients include several members of the Inner Circle of Advocates, I’ve spoken with Rick Friedman, Roger Dodd and Randi McGinn, Bill Barton has been a guest on my stage at events here in Portland and Trial Guides just released my brand-new DVD: The Power of Presence last month.
