Before presenting at work, sharing a talk on stage or communicating an important message, it’s natural to feel nervous.

However, if we allow our nerves to go unchecked, they can build up and lead to tension in the body.

In those moments just before we want to communicate with confidence.

This can have the effect of making us feel even more anxious.

So that we find ourselves becoming overwhelmed with nerves and feel unprepared or even cause us to panic.

Right at the last minute before speaking.

That why in today’s episode I share a technique for dealing with last minute nerves before speaking.

How many meetings have you organised, or participated in where you see people who aren’t engaged?

And they’re being distracted by their laptops or phones!

It’s almost as if they aren’t even in the meeting.

However, sometimes they find themselves so overwhelmed with nerves, anxiety or pressure before they are going to deliver an important speech or presentation, that they forget all the good things they know.

This means they rush through their speech or presentation and don’t feel they did a good enough job.

Some of my clients were asking me, “What can they do about it?”

So in response to that, I have made this guided mindfulness exercise.

If you find yourself getting a little worked up before sharing a message with lots of people

Or just when you are communicating with a few and ask yourself, "What can I do about it?",

Try this mindfulness exercise before delivering your next speech or presentation.

In today’s episode I answer this client question: “What should I do if I feel nervous before public speaking and presenting?”.

When you are on a video conference call, attending virtual events, or connecting with people online.

It can be difficult to get your point across in the same way as you would be able to if you were meeting in person.

Looking into the camera or the screen on your computer.

Can make you feel detached from your audience, your listeners.

The people with whom you want to connect.

I wonder if you’ll agree it’s difficult to feel the same sense of connection over video conference calls.

That you would feel when you are seeing people in person.

When you think about all the confident communication skills you would use, when you're meeting face to face.

Like eye contact, having an open posture and speaking clearly and confidently.

These can feel more challenging for you to do, when you don’t feel that same sense of connection.

As you can feel somewhat detached when you are sat at your computer.

Looking into the camera and at the faces you see on your computer screen.

Which means it can be more of a challenge to get your voice heard.

And see your message land and connect with those that you want it to.

In today's episode I'm going to share with you three techniques to help you communicate with confidence during online events, so your voice is heard.

Whenever you communicate, are you just using your words to get your point across?

Whether you are having a conversation with one person, or sharing a message with many.

So much of what you say isn’t just through your words, but also how you are saying it.

Through your non verbal communication skills, or in other words... your body language.

That’s why in today's episode I share with you two techniques to help you to communicate with confidence, using your non-verbal communication skills. 

*  The first technique is ‘How to make eye contact even if you don’t like doing it’.*  The second technique is ‘Communicate with confidence using your body language’.

A client of mine said that they noticed, while they were public speaking.

Their voice would start shaking a couple of minutes into their talk.

They said this only happened when they were speaking to a large group of people.

And was due to them feeling nervous about having to do this.

They asked me this question, “What can I do about this?"

In today’s episode I answer this client question: “What should I do if public speaking makes me feel nervous?”
