Happy Halloween! In honour of this spooky holiday, we’re going to be digging into a grave discussion about one of the biggest fears on the planet. You know the one I’m talking about. It’s that old-age fear of getting up on stage and speaking in front of an audience. The truth is, though, that in order to amplify our message, we need to have the courage to speak out. And one of the tools you can use to do just that is my 6-point Fear Formula. And hey, I’ll let you in on a secret ahead of time, there’s nothing mystical or magical about it – but I do guarantee that if you take each step to heart and practice it over time, then you’re going to see results. If you’ve ever struggled with getting onstage and speaking in front of a room full of people, then you’re in good company. Even notable celebrities like Julia Roberts, Emma Watson, Nicole Kidman and Barbara Streisand have struggled with the fear of speaking in front of a crowd face-to-face. In fact, one of out every four people experiences some sort of anxiety when it comes to sharing their story onstage. So what’s at the heart of glossophobia or the fear of public speaking? And why does it affect so many of us? The truth is that the fear we experience really doesn’t have anything to do with the story we’re sharing. It has more to do what we believe about ourselves. Psychologists tell us that many people who suffer from the fear of public speaking believe they’re not qualified enough or well-practiced enough or talented enough to be onstage. At the heart of this fear is that we’ll somehow be rejected or ridiculed when we offer our point of view. The difference between getting up on a stage and having a private conversation with one or two people is the perception that we’re somehow being evaluated when we take our place at a podium. In other words, we could technically have the very same conversation with our best friend and share a thought or an idea. And that wouldn’t throw us off. But if we step onstage and make the same presentation to a room full of strangers – or even colleagues – our nerves get tied up into knots. Isn’t it fascinating the way the human brain works? So here are the six elements of my 6-point Fear Formula which I’m excited to share with you today. Because if you take them to heart, I’ve seen firsthand the difference this approach can make. Step #1 is to Love Your Audience. Step #2 is to Name Your Fear. Step #3 is to Own your Awesome. Step #4 is to Embrace Your Weird. Step #5 is to Know Your Stuff. Step #6 is to Do it Scared. Listen in to the full episode for more ideas under each of the 6 points above! Until next time, keep owning your story, following your purpose and raising your voice. Because the world is waiting to hear your story.
