Does that sound impossible?
You've heard the statistics that say people are more afraid of public speaking than death. That doesn't mean we'd choose a firing squad over a podium. It means our fear of death is less pressing than our fear of speaking. In other words, death seems a long way off, but that Zoom presentation is in five days, seven hours, and nineteen minutes.
But there are some people who don't mind public speaking. They actually enjoy it. I know because I'm one of them. No, I wasn't born without adrenal glands. Nor was I always this way. In the Speak With No Fear book (SWNF), I share stories of my early struggles with public speaking, including the time I literally gave myself a psychosomatic fever to avoid facing my audience.
Learning to speak without debilitating fear is a skill that can be learned by anyone.
Who is this for? In short, it's for anyone who doesn't want to be held back anymore. If you're ready to conquer your fears and reap all the benefits of being a confident public speaker, you need to get this workbook now!
