That awkward tension you feel when the camera turns on? It’s not a sign you’re bad at speaking, it’s your body trying to help. In this solo episode, Tim Newman breaks down one of the most common confidence killers in modern communication: camera anxiety. Whether you’re recording a 60-second update or giving a virtual keynote, your nervous system is along for the ride. But with a few mindset shifts and setup tweaks, you can turn those nerves into powerful communication tools.

This isn’t about being perfect. It’s about showing up consistently with presence, purpose, and a message worth listening to.

What You'll Learn:

• Why your brain mixes up fear and excitement, and how to use that to boost your public speaking confidence
• How poor lighting and audio sabotage your message (and how to fix it without buying a studio)
• Box breathing and the “power pause” in calming nerves and commanding attention
• How body language and strategic gestures silently build trust and credibility
• Why consistent, imperfect action beats waiting for the “perfect” take every single time
• The 21-Day Video Challenge that will take your presentation skills to the next level

Tim’s Take:
Being a powerful communicator isn’t about flawless delivery. It’s about authentic presence, consistent practice, and learning to lead even when your hands are shaking. Stop waiting to feel ready, just press record.
