New Orleans accent, hard to understand...?

Question

I have a 'New Orleans' accent. I currently live in South Carolina, and I find it rather embarrassing when people HERE can't understand me because of my accent. I love my accent, it's a part of me. But is there an easy way to make myself more easily understood?

Any help is appreciated!
