The Courageous Life

[Re-Release] Practicing Courage #27: Overcoming fear of public speaking


Listen Later

Whether it’s presenting, facilitating, sharing in a large meeting, hosting, or some other form of being in the spotlight,

Speaking in public is one of people's greatest fears which may show up in various forms:

  • Doubt
  • Feeling anxious or nervous
  • Over-focusing on oneself


The list goes on.

 So today, we are re-releasing one of the most popular practices we've ever done, which addresses working with these fears by making a mindset shift from performance to curiosity.

If you have a moment where you will be speaking, interviewing, facilitating, coaching, hosting, or just generally interacting…and you find yourself getting nervous.

Give this a try, and see if it helps.

Curious to explore this topic further? Here are some conversations on the podcast we think you'll love:

  • Leadership From the Inside Out | Kevin Cashman
  • Unlocking the Mindset of a Champion | Shane O'Sullivan

Thank you for your practice today!

I look forward to continuing together next Thursday!

-Joshua
