The Fear of Public Speaking S1 E17


Listen Later

Welcome to Series 1 Episode 17 of 'PR Matters - The Public Relations Podcast' where you'll learn how to master the fear of public speaking.

Glossophobia is one of the biggest phobias in the western world! But what causes it? Why are some of us more prone to this fear than others? As a PR you need nuclear levels of confidence, but many lack it. So, how do we get it?

We talk to expert transformational coach, Marcus Matthews, about the brain's ability to be 'debugged' of fears and phobias like public speaking. "We just need to install a new software into the brain," assures Marcus, "and then we won't fear speaking in public ever again."

Marcus says the fear is a feeling that influences the mind and behaviour, and hypnotherapy is the only way to re-programme the mind. It's a fascinating bite-sized episode that answers some deep questions about the human psyche as it relates to the fear of public speaking.
