.MarielleSegarra shares 3 tips that helped her through her first week as NPRLifeKit's new host: 1⃣ Introduce yourself first 2⃣ Get a pep talk from a good friend 3⃣ When you’re doing something new, ask for advice from someone who’s done it before
Earlier this month, I began my new job as the host of Life Kit. I was nervous! It'd been six years since I started my last job at Marketplace, where I covered business and economics, and I wasn't sure what to do. What should I wear on my first day? How do I make a good first impression? How should I prepare for the parts of my job that are new – like being on camera?
So I called up my old friend and colleague Erika Romero for support. She and I used to work together at American Public Media. We would pop over to each other's desks for pep talks and have dance breaks in the kitchen. She also said I shouldn't be afraid to share my skills and talents. She reminded me of a time she'd been impressed by me. We went out to dinner with her husband and he shared something personal that he hadn't told most people. That's a quality that I bring to my job as a host and an interviewer, she said – I help people feel more comfortable opening up.Ask the pros
