I did a lot of research into this for my youtube channel
Where is your YouTube channel? I'd be interested in looking at the charisma stuff you've posted.
Oh, I haven't posted anything on it yet, but I was researching it in order to work on my own narration. The channel is at youtube.com/StoryBrain and is devoted largely to books and movies and my own theories I developed working as a Story Analyst, sort-of like Freakonomics for Entertainment. If you like the videos, subscribe, I have tons of stuff planned. :)

Charisma isn't just "something you're born with"; it's a specific set of behaviors that can be learned by anyone. You can practice these skills, and work on the three main areas of charisma: presence, power and warmth.
I'll present some of the exercises found in The Charisma Myth: How Anyone Can Master the Art and Science of Personal Magnetism (by Olivia Fox Cabane), and we'll see if we can find some fun ways of practicing!
If anyone has any good ideas for locations, please let me know; ideally, we would want a location where we can talk loudly without fear of bothering anyone. If the weather permits, we could do it outside.
