How to Overcome Social Anxiety: 5 Practical Steps with Nick Shelton


Listen Later

In this episode, we sit down with Nick Shelton — bestselling author, TEDx speaker, former U.S. Air Force member, and creator of The Reset Button — to talk openly about social anxiety and the practical steps you can take to overcome it.

Nick breaks down around five actionable steps to help you understand where anxiety comes from, why it shows up in social settings, and how to start reclaiming confidence without trying to “be someone you’re not.”

- This conversation goes beyond surface-level tips. We dive into:
- Why anxiety often affects thoughtful, driven, and introverted people
- How identity, purpose, and alignment play a role in social fear
- Practical tools you can start using immediately
- How to rebuild confidence without forcing extroversion

Nick also shares insights from his own journey — from serving in the U.S. Air Force, retiring early from a successful career, and ultimately redefining his purpose after realizing that freedom without direction can feel empty.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, overwhelmed in social situations, or unsure of who you’re becoming, this episode will resonate deeply.
