Looks like we might be the perfect fit!

Hi, my name is Jasmin.

Most people here know me as Jay from Hey Jay.

So far, I've worked 1-1 with 200+ amazing individuals who've skyrocketed their content, profile growth, and business on LinkedIn in record time.

🔥 "$15K USD 24 hours after my 1st session with Jay. Before that, I was close to losing hope and shutting down my business" - Nada Buhendi, F500 Career Coach

In the last 3 years on LinkedIn...

I've built the fastest-growing coaching business for solopreneurs and C-Suite individuals. 

Before that...

I spent 15 years writing online and branding companies and individuals. From Fortune 500 elite like Microsoft, Digicel, and Marriot Bonvoy to founders and C-Suites from almost every industry imaginable.

🔥 "Everyone needs a Jasmin Alić on their team. We've achieved 20% incremental revenue growth in the first 7 days of working together!" - Jack Bourke, Digicel

My offer to you?

We “put in the work”. Together. I will respect your time and your business, and I expect the same in return. 

My calls aren't "magical" because I do everything for you. No. 

They're magical because I will show you exactly what needs to be done. Every little tip, click and "algo hack" - yours for the taking.

I've spent 1,000+ days here.
I've written 5,000+ posts here.
I've coached 200+ individuals 1-1.
I've trained over 50,000+ online here.

I've put in the work, so you don't have to.

To put it bluntly...

I'm putting all of my 15 years of experience on the line for you and combining it with my deep understanding of this amazing platform. 

I don't need your money. I need you to win.

🔥 "This was the first call with a LinkedIn guru that I got on where there was actual value and alignment in delivery at the end of the call. It was strategy, action and reflection. Absolute value! No fluff all impact!" - Archita Fritz

3 ways we can work together:

1. Power Hour - 1 hour, ask me anything
2. Brand Blueprint Program - 8-week 1-1 coaching
3. My Link Up Community - my private coaching group

Copywriter and Brand Strategist

“How do I share my story?”
“What if nobody reads it?”
“What if nobody likes it?”

These are legitimate concerns for any brand.

Whether you're a company or personal brand...

How you show up in your content is everything.

- You want to be clear in your writing
- You want to be strong in your execution
- You want to be remembered for your service

To do so, you need good copy and a great strategy.

I help brands like Dash, Digicel, Marriott Bonvoy, and Microsoft "sweeten" their brand messaging and content strategy. 

Fortune 500 companies.
Fastest-growing companies.
Personal brands with high net worth.

They trust me with their candy. Will you?

Need a great website? 
Need to grow on LinkedIn? 
Need to (re)position your brand?

Say "Hey Jay" in a message and let's chat.

Or just hop into my Calendly and let me know you're serious: https://calendly.com/jasmin-alic/coaching

Apparently, LinkedIn can't figure out I'm real. 💔

1. I was restricted 5 times this year. Logged out of my profile due to "suspicion of automated activity".

(There was NO automated activity)

2. A recent post got locked because I had a 52% engagement rate in the first 15 minutes. Bro, how can I even control people reacting to a post?!

3. I must be triggering all the "false positives" in the algorithm, as Jeremy from Favikon told me. It's just "unheard of" to get this level of engagement.

Sorry, but...

LinkedIn and Ryan Roslansky, what in the world do you want me to do?

Serious question.

I don't use automations.
I don't have virtual assistants.
I write all of my content manually.
I write every single comment myself.
I send all my DMs and connects manually.
I'm the only person with access to my profile.
I have precisely 0 tools connected to my profile.
I have precisely 0 extensions installed for LinkedIn.

So tell me...

How much more REAL do you need me to be?

I will NOT stay silent anymore!!!

My 2 cents:

(And my offer to fix this at the end of this post)

1. This issue is showing your incompetence. 1000s of users are going through this; not just me.

Please explain your restriction policies transparently.

2. You ask ME for information about my restriction. How would I know? Each of the 5 times, I wasn't even online!

YOU should be the one giving ME the information. 🤦‍♂️

3. You have access to everyone's data and activity. And you can easily see which tools are connected. So why pretend like you don't? Which brings me to:

If you see someone uses ZERO automation tools, how can you even restrict them for automation?

4. Your Support ticket system doesn't work. Period.

To top it all off, you told me I "reached the maximum number of verification attempts". What even is that?!

5. You are putting people's livelihoods at risk. Because you've pushed users for years to buy Premium, use LinkedIn for business, and then... what, shut 'em down?

Here's my offer:

Dear LinkedIn team,

As one of the more prominent creators on your platform, I feel obligated to address this. Book me a meeting with your team (in charge of this issue) and I will book a flight to either your New York or Sunnyvale headquarters in the next 48 hours. I will spend as much (unpaid) time as needed to help you figure this out. I will use my own money to fund this. I want to do more for your users than you are doing right now. Get me that meeting. I'm looking at flights right now. I MEAN THIS 1000%.

I've looked at legal counsel on this matter too.

I'm happy to involve lawyers in our conversations moving forward. By all means.

This... NEEDS to be fixed once and for all.

Not just for me. For everyone.

Enough is enough.

Thank you.

Signed:

Award-winning personal branding & business coach | Founder of Link Up Community (67 countries) | Teaching you how to build a trusted brand & profitable business

Jasmin Jay Alic writes an open letter to LinkedIn, addressing the recent restrictions of LinkedIn profiles, with thousands of users unfairly losing access to LinkedIn while receiving zero clarification from the LinkedIn team. Jasmin references his five restrictions in just January of 2026 and shares his experience of the process, which is not showing any good signs of LinkedIn handling this issue well. In this post, Jasmin offers to help with the issue directly and asks the LinkedIn CEO for a meeting. The image shows Jasmin speaking directly into the camera while recording a video in a studio. The image also includes screenshots of Jasmin’s recent restriction warnings received from LinkedIn.

People overcomplicate LinkedIn. Too much.

I don't care how many followers you have.

If your post is good, I'll like and comment.

I don't care about your country or name.

Or if you're a direct competitor of mine.

If you "show up" in my LinkedIn feed...

(and you actually write good content)

I want my network to see you. "Like".

It's that simple to support others. ❤️

Cheers, y'all! (Go support someone)

Most LinkedIn DMs are pushy. Or salesy.

Let's fix that. (Full outreach masterclass)

This read is 2 minutes long. So either keep reading, or save it for later. Either way, you're in for a treat!

I will explain my tried-and-tested "warm outreach" approach. Using Linkbound, Kondo and Sales Nav.

(neither is a must, but each one ties into the other)

1. Familiar faces first

Most people reach out to complete strangers. This is why "selling" feels odd. There's no trust. Instead, focus on those you've already interacted with on LinkedIn.

2. Linkbound for engagement filtering

Analyze your engagement (or from your competitors if you don't get much engagement) with Linkbound. It will give you a complete list of "warm leads".

3. Filter leads to match your ICP (ideal client profile)

Linkbound has a brand-new feature which tailor-matches your ICP criteria to your offer. It means every name is both "familiar" + "qualified".

4. Feed into your LinkedIn CRM (Sales Nav)

Follow their LinkedIn activity closely. In other words:

5. Become "top of mind"

The easiest way to send that first DM is to spark engagement elsewhere. In a comment. In a reply. On their post. On someone else's post. Doesn't matter.

6. Attract profile views

Every profile view you receive is a "warm" signal. You can now easily send the first DM saying "Hey, so happy you visited my profile! What brought you here?"

7. Send DMs daily

Make "reaching out to ICPs" a daily habit. No excuses. It will feel angsty at first. The more you do it, the easier and more enjoyable it gets. I promise you this!

8. Never pitch in the first message. Please.

9. Always follow the PBS psychology

Permission-Based Selling means you never outright send something (pitch deck, offer, link) "assuming" they need it. Always ask first. And get a Yes first.

10. Separate DMs into folders, with Kondo

Depending on who you message, you might have different conversations. Kondo (made by Mitchell Tan) lets you have multiple LinkedIn inboxes. Brilliant!

11. Set follow-ups in Kondo

I recommend setting alerts in Kondo for "no-replies". You're not necessarily being ghosted when someone doesn't reply. You just have to remind them.

12. Track progress in Linkbound

The more you talk to each person, readying the "sale", simply drag and drop your conversations further. You'll see your leads qualified in real time to a Yes or No.

13. Feed back into Sales Nav

A lead that says No now is not a "forever No". Keep up with their LinkedIn updates. Their network might be packed with new opportunities for you. Repeat 1-12.

TL;DR:

• Establish familiarity first by engaging
• Use Linkbound to qualify before outreach
• Use Kondo for streamlined DM management
• Use Sales Nav to source network opportunities
• Never pitchslap :)

Familiarity → Filtering → Permission → Trust → 💰

Really hope you find this useful. Cheers!

Today is a beautiful day. Ramadan begins. ❤️

(I hope this post lights up your feed)

The very first time I wrote about Ramadan, my post was featured by LinkedIn News for millions.

So I write one every year.

Just as a reminder that we all might have friends, employees, or connections who are fasting. Me?

I've been fasting Ramadan for 25 years. So let me share a few bits from a first-person POV:

1. This is not a month for fasting. It's for "cleansing".
↳ Motivate yourself to think more positively.

2. The goal is to maximize all the "good" you do.
↳ Remind yourself to do / give more charity.

3. Healthy habits become normal habits.
↳ Do your best to build small daily habits too.

4. Tolerance and empathy reach an all-time high.
↳ Practice patience. Understanding. Love for others.

5. And here's my personal ask:

If you have fasting employees, cut them some slack the next few weeks. Skip those morning meetings. Better yet, do your best to participate in Ramadan activities. Invite your team to "iftar" (the dinner meal). And if you can all get together to buy food for the homeless and those "in need" in your area, do it 10x. Because even the homeless are fasting. So do your part.

In a nutshell...

Ramadan fasting might be prescribed for Muslims only. But it brings betterment for anyone, anywhere.

In the next 30 days...

"Do your best to do your best".

Ramadan Mubarak, my dear friends. ❤️

I owe my LinkedIn followers this post.

If you read til the end, thank you. ❤️

Every year, I receive around 100,000 new followers. This means many of you are "new to me". So this...

This is my re-introduction. My CV:

(some of these things, I've never shared publicly)

1. I'm a proud father. Just 2 dudes against the world.

(this always comes first 👌)

2. I was born and raised (and still living) in Bosnia and Herzegovina. They even made me an official ambassador and I now hold a diplomatic passport.

(Life goals = check 🙌)

3. I wanted to be an artist. Like, arts academy. Instead, I earned a full scholarship to a prestige private (international) university. Majored in English.

(Honor roll student too 🎓)

4. Most people don't believe I'm a Bosnian (because of my accent). Detroit is usually where they pin me at.

(Thank you, Eminem 🙏)

6. My full name is pronounced as "Yah-ss-meen", not "Jazz-minn". And "A-leech", not "Ah-leck".

(you practiced it just now, didn't you? 🤔)

7. I was a teacher at every level. Did my praxis at a kindergarten. Then taught at middle and high school. Later became a university professor. Won 200+ medals and awards internationally with my students.

(taught English, German, and later... copywriting ✍️)

8. I used to be a rapper. Got 6 albums behind me. Charted on MTV. Participated in X-Factor. Yes, I was an "influencer" way before LinkedIn.

(I also rap really fast 🎤)

9. I don't know how to ride a bike. (random fun fact)

10. This is year 17 for me in the online space. I started writing online to help my parents fund my stay in a different city during university. Later went full time.

(later also retired my parents ❤️)

11. I run several businesses online. Coaching. Community. Speaking. The list goes on...

The list of career highlights is cool:

- Ranked #1 LinkedIn creator globally
- Coached the #1 UK and APAC creators
- Featured in Forbes, The Financial Times...
- Ranked "Best Speaker" at over 30+ events
- Sold out my Link Up community before day 1
- World's "most profitable" community, Nov 2025
- Received the "Man of the Year" award in late 2025

12. I never share my earnings publicly. (ever)

Fun fact: "jasmin alic net worth" is the 3rd most searched phrase next to my name. 😂

13. My coolest skill: Design and visual thinking. I do all of my design work - and for my clients too. At this point, thousands of visual assets designed.

14. My most useless skill: Being able to quote all 9 seasons of Suits. Any episode. Any character. Feel free to test me on this - I stand behind it.

14. Favorite food? Burgers.

15. Least favorite? Onions. Garlic. Balsamic.

16. Favorite quote? "Givers get". Forever true. 😍

17. Main goal in life? For my knowledge to outlive me. To enable millions to help billions. To spread kindness and good vibes wherever I can. Life is short.

Thanks for reading! ❤️

Jasmin Jay Alic shares a re-introduction post with his followers. He lists 17 fun facts about him as well as his personal career highlights, so his new followers could get to know him better. It's Jasmin Alic's mini biography, in a sense, with a personal touch. In the photo, Jasmin is seen smiling in the flower-filled streets of Manhattan, New York City.

I spent 4 hours on a LinkedIn Live last night.

That's longer than most paid courses. Why?

1. Because I genuinely care about my community ❤️
2. Because I finally had a call with LinkedIn support
3. Because I have many LinkedIn updates to share
4. Because my Link Up community is leveling up!
5. Because I love teaching; coaching even more!
6. Because sales were going well... so why not?
7. Because sales wer... wait, I already said that.

~6,000 comments were exchanged on the call!

A few updates - straight from the source:

1. "Any and all extensions are forbidden" 🤯
2. LinkedIn does not want to explain "reach"
3. Mass views of profiles can get you restricted
4. Mass DM sends (copy-pasting messages) too
5. There is NO "daily" comment limit (it is a myth)
6. They look for "behavior patterns" in commenting
7. They started a new "effort" for engagement pods.

Some of these are worrying. Most are good.

Either way, hope I can keep being a guide to all of us.

Monday Motiv... Happy LinkedIn-ing, friends. 👋

P.S. Which news above are you excited for?

Jasmin Jay Alic recaps his 4-hour LinkedIn live event, where he talked about the most recent platform updates and clarifications he received on a direct call with LinkedIn Support. He also explains how he loves to coach and doesn’t mind spending this many hours on a call just to be of service to his community. The image shows Jasmin smiling while sitting in his studio, with his signature teal lights behind him, and a laptop and microphone in front of him. 

Them: "My LinkedIn engagement is low."

Me: "Are you commenting on others' posts?"

Them: "No, who's got time for that every day?"

Me: "The same people you expect to support you."

Give to get. With no regret. And you're forever set. ❤️

The mayor was there. And I was the speaker.

What an incredibly proud thing to say. ❤️

This weekend, I was invited as a special guest at a business dinner in Sarajevo, as part of the Bosnian Independence Day. Picture this:

1. 100+ business owners (legit household names)
2. Franchise restaurants, products, shops
3. Elected officials - even the mayor

And then there's this "LinkedIn guy" sitting at the table on stage. The guy with a diplomatic passport. The brand and business coach operating in 67 countries.

Going from global to local... just feels so right.

I don't take these things for granted. 🤲

I never will. It took years to get here.

This isn't a flex post. This is a:

If anyone ever told you "LinkedIn influence" isn't real influence, show them this post.

Monday Motivation, over. Cheers!

P.S. Remember to be grateful today. For everything you've done. And every hardship that comes with it. It's all part of the journey. Just remember, ok? ❤️

Jasmin Jay Alic shares a motivational post about being a speaker at a business dinner, which also had the mayor in the audience. He uses this post as an analogy for gratitude and not taking things for granted in this career. The image shows Jasmin proudly looking into the distance, while standing at the top of a building, and wearing a custom black formal vest suit.

The current state of LinkedIn is questionable.

No one knows "what's working". However...

These 3 things will forever keep working:

1. Stop using "bait-and-switch" in your writing → I see too many posts reeling readers in with a clever hook only to talk about something entirely different by the end.

Pro tip: Summarize your post in the first 3 lines.

2. Create reach, don't expect it → Engage with others on their posts 90% more than you engage on your own posts. This percentage will never change.

Pro tip: Find 5 completely new people every day.

3. DM to nurture, not to sell → Those who buy from you won't be persuaded by 1 DM. This happens earlier. DM to start conversations, not to end them.

Pro tip: DM 1 ICP who views your profile every day.

LinkedIn will keep changing.

These three rules won't.

They're good forever.

Thank me later. 👋

P.S. What's up with everyone posting memes recently? Are we really THAT out of ideas? 🤔

Jasmin Jay Alic shares his thoughts on the current state of LinkedIn. He emphasizes three actions that will always work, no matter what. He also adds pro tips for each as an example of things done right. In the photo, Jasmin is seen passionately speaking at a panel in Novi Sad, Serbia, while holding a mic in his hand, and wearing a tailored blue suit.

I have 355K followers here. But what If I had 0?

Here's 3 things I'd do more of (and less of):

More:

1. Commenting on 3rd degree connections' posts → This puts me closer to their 1st degrees → new networks

2. DMing people just to say thanks → I met so many new clients and Link Up members this way

3. Giveaways and live events with small creators → Supporting others → Can't ever do this enough

Less:

1. Overthinking what to post next → sometimes your best posts are imperfect momentary thoughts

2. Certain personal posts → I only wrote 2 "solo dad" posts, each time I regretted writing those

3. Overthinking my price → 4 years later, my rates are 8x, yet I still have to push coaching clients away

Anything you'd add to the list? 😊

---

Whatever you do with the advice above...

Just know it's coming from someone who's done it. Who's been ranked the #1 LinkedIn creator in the world. Someone who knows this platform inside out.

I wouldn't tell you to do it unless I'd do it myself.

Hope this helps you today. ❤️

P.S. 1 reposter today will get access to my Link Up community. I don't do these often. Good luck!

Jasmin Jay Alic shares 3 things he would do more and less of after gaining 355,000 followers on LinkedIn. He shares his honest advice and opinions on certain things that have shaped his LinkedIn journey. In the photo, Jasmin is seen smiling while being interviewed for The Barakah Blueprint podcast.

Gary V called comments a "new marketing function".

I got tagged a bunch in that post. 😀

Years ago, I started treating comments like an actual "growth strategy" on LinkedIn. In fact, it worked so well that even LinkedIn wanted to hear more about it.

1. They featured my commenting strategy for 1 billion users. (plastered it on their home feed)

2. I got invited to a call. (to talk commenting)

3. It became my signature. (rightfully so)

This was 4 years ago. And yet...

Nothing's changed.

It is still the best LinkedIn strategy ever.
It is still the most human hack for "growth".
It is still the thing that builds all my businesses.

The world's catching up.

But I'll keep on saying...

I told you so. 😊

Don't make me tell you again in another 4 years, k? Please start treating your comments seriously.

Deal?

Monday Motivation, over.

P.S. No AI comments either, ok?

Jasmin Jay Alic shares a reaction post to Gary Vee’s statement that commenting has now become a new marketing function. As one of the trailblazers of commenting on social media, Jasmin’s engagement strategies have been featured worldwide by major platforms, including LinkedIn themselves. In the photo, Jasmin and Gary are seen speaking on the same stage, as symbolism of “shouting” about new trends to the masses before everyone else.

What to people think when they hear your name?

That... is your positioning. It's that simple.

You can analyze yours like this:

First step:

Do they know what you do?
Do they know how you help them?
What emotion do you inspire in them?

Second step:

Do they care about you?
Will they tell you things honestly?
Especially if you make a typo in the hook?

(you just went back to check, didn't you? 😊)

If so, you're in my second group.

So... thank you for that.

Now ask yourself these questions for real. Don't stop iterating until you can answer each one clearly.

That... is your positioning.

Hope this helps someone today.

- Coach J

P.S. Be honest, did you notice the typo right away?

Jasmin Jay Alic shares a thought-provoking post about your positioning as a brand. He explains that it's all in your name, and how people react to it. In the post, he gives examples of questions to ask to nail down your positioning clearly. In the photo, Jasmin is seen taking a selfie in front of a Jasmin store, with a bright red and white logo of his name in front of the store.

I've read many International Women's Day posts.

This is mine. For my special ones. ❤️

1. Mom. May God bless our mamas. They're the reason we're even here. Never forget to hug yours daily and shower them with precious gifts. (if you can)

2. Bridgette Orten. Forever thank you. You're the reason I started coaching people on LinkedIn. You were THAT persistent client who pushed me into saying Yes, after I said No to who knows how many people.

3. Ladies in my Link Up community. You powerhouses deserve a throne. Especially Victoria, Kristina, and Thahaseen. I don't know what I'd do without you.

4. All my day 1's. (you know who you are)

That's it. That's the post.

No Monday Motivation. Just a thank you to all the ladies who've changed my life and career.

You deserve the world. ❤️

P.S. Who are your superhero ladies?

Jasmin Jay Alic shares a heartfelt post for International Women’s Day. He celebrates all the special ladies who have changed his life and career, and names his mom, his first LinkedIn coaching Bridgette Orten, ladies in his Link Up Community, as well as his day ones. The image shows Jasmin smiling while taking a photo with several LinkedIn creators at the second global Link Up meetup in New York City.

What's your favorite thing about LinkedIn now?

1. The highly unpredictable impression count
2. The "LinkedIn is now insufferable" posts
3. The very obvious AI-written comments
4. The mildly obvious AI-assisted posts
5. The not-so-obvious "bot" profiles
6. The fake engagement monsters
7. The removal of loved features
8. The averagely funny memes

Add your own if you'd like to.

P.S. Jokes aside, my favorite thing will always be engaging with new people every single day. This is how I've signed 99% of my coaching clients and community members over the years. It's why we're still winning after all these years. LinkedIn is rewarding if you want it to be. ❤️

I've been writing online for 17 years.

Today, I run a business in 67 countries.

Read that again, please.
Yes, re-read those 2 lines.
Do you notice what's missing?

Most of you will focus on the "67 countries" part.

The scale.
The millions.
The authority.

Few of you will focus on the "17 years" part.

The time.
The failures.
The iterations.

And I see this on social media A LOT. You compare yourself to people with a lifetime of experience ahead of you. Decades of wealth building.

Play your own game. At your own pace.

Genuinely...

(And I truly mean this)

Genuinely ignore what everyone else is doing. This is the only way you'll always feel like a winner.

Because you'll win at your own terms.

"If you do things on other people's terms, it is just wrong for your life" - 50 Cent

Sincerely,

Coach J ❤️

Get clients, investments and influence by speaking confidently | Public Speaking Coach for entrepreneurs and execs | ex-Fortune 50 | My featured section has a gift for you.

You know who gets the most clients and promotions?

The person who can speak the best.

You might be an expert in your domain.
But if you don't speak with confidence, no one will trust you.

Your career and business will suffer because you struggle to speak powerfully.

Your next client will go to the person who presents better than you.
Your next promotion will go to the person who communicates better than you.
Your investor might pass because they are not convinced of your value and worth.

You’ll feel weak and powerless.

It’s crazy because you have a lot to share with the world.

But your speaking skills let you down.

Here’s the good news:
It doesn’t have to be like that.

Now imagine:
You ace sales calls and win dream projects because you speak with confidence.
You get that promotion because you present with clarity in the boardroom.
You build a powerful brand because the world listens when you speak.

I can help you get there.

I’ve helped 500+ entrepreneurs and execs become confident and effective speakers.

• Entrepreneurs like Wes, who had stage fright and went blank when he was in the spotlight.

• VPs like Sarah, whose voice shook every time she presented in the boardroom. But became a confident speaker working with me and secured 2 leads worth $350,000 for her company.

• LinkedIn creators like Jasmin Alić, Ruben Hassid, Lara Acosta, Sophie Miller, Nigel Thomas, Nicholas Boucher, and Mando Sallavanti III who now speak on big stages with credibility, authority, and influence.

I can help you become a confident, powerful speaker too.

Your body language can break your confidence.

Here’s how to fix it:

The way you stand.
The way you move your hands.
And even the way you make eye contact.

It can make or break your message.

Here's how you can master your body language:

→ On camera:

Make eye contact with the camera.
Use gestures intentionally for emphasis.
Frame yourself at eye-level to convey confidence.

→ In person or on stage:

Keep your feet shoulder-width apart to project stability.
Move purposefully to keep your audience engaged.
Use open gestures to convey your authority.

Remember,
Your body speaks louder than your words.

Master body language to become unforgettable.

They say “reach is down on LinkedIn”.

But one video got me 44,589 impressions last week.

This is not a fluke.

It’s because:

→ I write scripts with super actionable hooks.
→ Video recording system in my studio ready to go.
→ I know how to show up on camera with confidence.

But more than all of that -
Creating real videos makes you instantly stand out.

The best part?

My videos have not just gotten impressions, they’ve:

→ Gotten me paid to do workshops all over Europe.
→ Landed me invites to teach MBA programs.
→ Led to clients like NASA working with me.

Real videos make you more human.

Create videos to stand out vs AI-generated posts.
You'll be instantly recognized and remembered.

PS what’s stopping you from doing more videos?

I’ve spoken on stages for 17 years (including TEDx).

Here’s the most powerful trick I’ve learned:

How to pause.

This video shows you the magical power of the pause.

(And I’ve created this Power Pause guide to show you exactly when to pause: https://lnkd.in/d7Y2UtTB)

Pause to become more powerful in the room.

P.S. Do you pause intentionally?

Stop using exploitative language in job ads!

“Going the extra mile", "working non-typical hours":

These are thinly veiled words to give the company an excuse to exploit people.

- When it says: “go the extra mile”
It actually means: “work beyond your scope”.

- When it says: “work non-typical hours”
It actually means: “work overtime without complains”.

I’m coaching a client to speak well in interviews -
And this language immediately stood out.

Language reflects culture.

When the job ad sounds exploitative,
That’s what the actual job will be too.

If you want to fix your culture, prevent toxicity and retain people for longer -

Use words that respect employees, not exploit them.

PS - ever come across job ads like these?

The weirdest way to make someone feel important:

(and no, it’s not flattery)

Tilt your head when you listen to them.

This is so weird - but it totally works.

When you tilt your head as someone’s talking:

- You show interest in them.
- They register this quickly as it’s visual.
- They feel like you're considering their point of view.

When you make people feel seen and heard,
You win their hearts and minds.

I created LinkedIn’s first course on AI and public speaking.

But here’s where you should not use AI:

Look, I love AI.

But this MIT study shows that relying on AI:

→ Decreases your brain connectivity.
→ Weakens your memory.
→ Makes you less creative.

This doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t use AI.

But use it to enhance your creativity.

Not outsource it.

Here’s my take as a public speaking coach:

→ Always come up with the key ideas yourself.
→ Use AI to critique and build on your ideas.
→ AI becomes your co-creator, not your ghostwriter.

You bring the personality, ideas, stories.

AI enhances and packages it.

Win-win.

P.S. Do you use AI for presentations? Yes/no?

How I create world-class speakers:

(applies to mastering anything)

I didn’t wake up confident.

I built it.

Over 17 years on stages, on camera, in boardrooms.

I used to speak too fast.
Had too many filler words.
Got called out on my wild hand gestures.

Then I realized something.

The problem isn’t fear.

It’s losing access to your intelligence
right when it matters most.

So I studied it.
Tested it.
Broke it down.

Here’s what actually creates a Top 1% communicator:

1. Change the story
If you think “I’m bad at speaking”
your body will make it true.

2. Build self-trust first
Confidence comes from trusting your message.

3. Learn the right tools
Understand how to master your voice.
It’s the most powerful tool that you have.

4. Train with feedback
If you practice without feedback it builds bad habits.
Practice + feedback builds mastery.

5. Learn to improvise
Improvising is not “winging it”.
It’s training your brain to respond on demand.

It took me 17 years to learn this.

But I created The Confidence Accelerator
because this shouldn’t take 17 years.

I’ve now coached 500+ leaders from Google to NASA.

Yasir Waheed landed his dream job.
Jeremiah Hammon, PMP got speaking opportunities.
Jana Hargash launched her new offer in a webinar.

World-class speakers aren’t born.
They’re trained.

PS What do you want to speak about?

Your body speaks before your mouth does.

(Don’t fall for these 6 body language mistakes)

Non-verbal communication tells a story about you:

- Are you confident?
- Are you likeable?
- Are you trustworthy?

Take charge of the narrative.

Check out the video where I show you the 6 most common body language mistakes.

Because when you can talk without speaking,

You're already ahead of the game.

P.S. Is there a mistake here that you’ve seen? Yes/no?

I’m Nausheen. I have purple hair and I coach CEOs.

This is why purple hair is my “unfair advantage”:

For most of my career, I tried to look the part.

Corporate manager.
Filmmaker.
Agency director.

Professional. Safe. The same as everyone else.

Then I started coaching founders to find their voice.
And realized something.

I wasn’t fully using mine.

So the purple hair became a reminder of three things:

1. Don’t be invisible.

My clients are brilliant founders, coaches, experts.

But they shy away from the spotlight.
They hide behind their keyboards.
And someone else gets their clients.

Visibility is an entrepreneur’s superpower.

2. Live up to the promise.

The purple hair gets my foot in the door.

It stops the scroll.

But being a credible expert means:
Being able to consistently deliver.

I never forget that.

3. Your difference is your leverage.

When I started coaching leaders, I worried:
“Will CEOs take me seriously?”

But the opposite happened.

The purple hair became a signal.

“Nausheen doesn’t teach generic leadership advice.”
“She helps me stand out in any room.”

So yes.

I’m Nausheen.
I stand out because of my purple hair.

And I coach CEOs to stand out without dyeing theirs.

PS - what’s your version of “purple hair”?
