191 - Turn Doubt into Presence: Speak, Influence and Sell More


Listen Later

What if your self‑doubt could become the secret fuel for your most persuasive, human moments on stage and in sales conversations? You can and we're going to show you how.


In this episode of Amplify Your Marketing Message with Christine Campbell Rapin, she sits down with Katja Verderber to unpack presence, voice, and the practical work of showing up—whether you’re on a big stage, leading a meeting, or having a one‑to‑one sales conversation. Katja reframes stage fright as usable energy, explains why audiences remember energy more than words, and shares a simple, repeatable system to transform doubt into authority so you can influence and sell with authenticity.


Listen to this Episode to Discover:

  • What presence really is and why energy matters more than perfect phrasing.
  • Scripts vs. message: when to use text, bullets, or speak from the heart.
  • Reframing self‑doubt into a performance advantage and practical breathing tools to steady nerves.
  • Role‑based energy: step into an “animal” or role to access confident presence on demand.
  • Visibility as practice: why showing up imperfectly beats hiding and how to build momentum.
  • Practical prep: authorship of your message, audience agreements, and the one question to ask every host.


Today's Guest: Katja Verderder

Katja Verderber believes the most powerful form of influence has nothing to do with persuasion, it’s about presence. A former singer and TV presenter turned transformational communication expert, she teaches leaders and professionals how to “sell” without selling — by speaking from truth, not performance.


As the founder of italk.live, Katja helps clients overcome stage fright, perfectionism, and self-censorship so they can communicate with authenticity and conviction. Drawing on methods from psychodrama and sociodrama, she guides people to connect first to themselves, then to others.


Her work is rooted in one simple idea: when you stop trying to impress, you start to inspire.
