249. 5 tips to master public speaking

iHeartPodcasts
About this episode

Public speaking is one of our biggest fears as a species - some 75% of us list public speaking as our biggest and greatest fear. In today's episode, I want to discuss why that is and where this fear stems from, socially, psychologically and evolutionary, but also how we can transform our attitude to public speaking and excel, including tips based in psychology such as: 

  1. Creating a persona and modelling a hero
  2. Embracing flow rather than a need for structure 
  3. The power of slowing down 
  4. Anxiety and pacing 
  5. Anchoring yourself to your audience 

Listen now if you're ready to master your next speech or presentation!
