Anyone Looking to Manage Anxiety and Make Speaking a More Positive Experience

Most people get nervous when they have to speak in public. However, some people have so much anxiety and reservations about it that they truly, honestly fear it. The truth is that there is no quick fix for a fear of public speaking. It takes work to overcome. This 20-minute online “quick class” will help you get on the path to feeling less nervous.

This class is for people who feel overly nervous or anxious when it comes to public speaking. If you are already fairly comfortable speaking in public, then my workshop Power Presentations: Tips and Tricks for Presenting More Effectively is likely a better fit for you.
