Last week, on the first over glossophobia we went over what the fear actually was. We discussed how phobia may not be the best way to describe it and how a terror is probably more accurate. It's intense, it's dramatic, and it's something does effect your everyday life. If you believe after listening to last weeks episode that you are one of the many that may suffer from glossophobia or symptoms that align with glossophobia, this week, we'll work on solving that. This week, we will we be discussing and looking at a few excellent ways to actually tackle that public speaking terror you and many others suffer from. While fully eliminating the fear can be and impossible task, there are certainly a few things that have helped millions control their fear, even to the point of being able to give speeches.So if you're interested in solving that issue and making public speaking a manageable concept, stick around for a few excellent ways to tackle that fear. Show Notes: How to Overcome Glossophobia (The Fear of Public Speaking)(https://www.fearlesspresentations.com/how-to-overcome-glossophobia-an-irrational-fear-of-public-speaking/)
Last week, I discussed the fastest and easiest way to solve public speaking fear (utilizing stories and examples), and I mentioned on that episode that most people have some type of nervousness when they stand up to present in front of others. But what do you do if your fear is more intense than just little jitters. Well, on this episode I'm going to tell you all about glossophobia, the extreme fear of public speaking. I'll tell you a lot of the misconceptions people seem to have with this "phobia", how many people really have it, what the symptoms are, and how you can know if you truly have it or not. Public speaking is a vital part of most working people's day to day life and knowing the difference between typical public speaking nervousness and actual glossophobia can make treating your fear correctly way easier and save you wasted time. So stick around as I go over Glossophobia, the fear of public speaking, and keep an eye out for the next episode later this week where I tell you all about how to treat it.Show Notes: How to Overcome Glossophobia (The Fear of Public Speaking)(https://www.fearlesspresentations.com/how-to-overcome-glossophobia-an-irrational-fear-of-public-speaking/)

In this episode, I'm thrilled to share a proven method for quickly and effectively outlining presentations, talks, webinars, or any form of communication. At the core of this approach are nine focusing questions I learned from my public speaking mentor. Whether you're a seasoned speaker or just starting out, this episode will equip you with the tools to create clear, impactful presentations on the fly. So, let's dive in and transform the way you prepare for your next speaking engagement! Overview of the Nine Focusing Questions Cliff explains each of the nine questions, using examples to clarify their purpose: Who is the Target Audience? Identifying the specific audience helps tailor the talk to their needs. Is the Talk Persuasive or Enabling? Determines if the goal is to persuade or to enable by teaching steps. What is the Objective of the Talk? Focuses on the main purpose of the talk (e.g., enabling people to outline a presentation quickly). What Keyword Will I Use? Using a consistent keyword, like “questions,” provides a thematic anchor. What is the Pregnant Sentence? A single, clear sentence summarizing the talk's purpose to ensure clarity. What are the Rationales? The main points or reasons supporting the objective, forming the talk's structure. What Resources Support Your Rationales? Examples, anecdotes, research, or visuals that reinforce key points. How Will You Open and Transition into the Talk? I discuss different engaging opening techniques, like storytelling or painting a vivid picture. How Will You Transition and Close the Talk? Strategies for impactful closing, including restating objectives or linking back to the opening.

This is part two of a two-part series about low-risk venues where you can practice public speaking. In the introduction last week, I mentioned that the absolute best place to practice public speaking is in a public speaking class with a great coach. A good public speaking class is a controlled environment, so the risk is very low. However, over the years, I've come across a bunch of other low-risk venues to practice public speaking. Last week, I covered a number of low-risk virtual venues where you can practice speaking in front of a group. Virtual venues can be great for fine-tuning your message and learning to be concise. And, in most cases, you can practice and get your message perfect before unveiling it to the public.This week, I give you some of the best low-risk venues to practice in front of a live audience. The live audience is crucial for gaining public speaking confidence because most of your confidence will come from seeing that positive visual feedback from the audience. When you communicate well, your audience will give you positive expressions. Those little nods when they agree with you and smiles when you make them laugh are critical to overcoming public speaking fear.
In the second of our two-part series, Jennifer Richmond and Winkfield Twyman, Jr. talk with Brent Hamachek about his book Dissidently Speaking. As self-proclaimed Dissidents in their own book, Letters in Black and White, Jen and Wink were excited to hear from Brent on how he defines “dissidently speaking.” In this episode, we work to define labels like “left,” and “right,” examine how we've co-opted terms (e.g. communism and liberalism), explore the manipulation of slogan words (e.g. marginalization and woke), discuss a variety of ethics, including objective ethics, “Tootsie Roll” ethics, and the “Golden Rule,” and emphasize the power of metaphor. Join us for a conversation on how we can “sober up” from our conflict addictions and just… do better.

One of the most common questions that I get as a public speaking coach is, "Where can I go to practice speaking?" It is usually a good idea to practice your presentation skills somewhere that is more low risk than in front of a big client, or your boss, or the board of directors.Obviously, I'm pretty biased, but with good reason. I believe that the absolute best place to practice public speaking is in a public speaking class with a great coach. A good public speaking class is a controlled environment, so the risk is very low. Also, you get practice presenting in front of real people. That is an important part of the learning process.However, over the years, I've come across a bunch of low-risk venues to practice public speaking. So, over the next couple of episodes, I'll give you this list.That way, you'll have a bunch of different options to choose from. Pick the one or two venues that you feel will give you the best practice.
