Public speaking has earned it’s place in the Fear Hall of Fame over and over again… each day with each person who does their own version of freaking out over stepping in front of the room to present, perform, interview or just have all eyes on them. I hear this from clients all the time.

When someone who was very quiet raised her hand for a question, she apologized profusely for asking even before she asked the question. I had to seize the moment and get her out of her comfort zone of “I don’t deserve to be heard.” This was an on-the-spot coaching opportunity, and with her permission, I brought her to the front of the room.
Her nervous smile revealed what we all knew,

Having just returned from a conference with 12 speakers, five of which are world reknown, it gave me the chance to test my theory.
I had my usual backstage pass taking care of the speakers before they went on, and the opportunity to watch the faces of the audience as they experienced each speaker. What was it that got the audience to write down the golden nuggets they heard? Even more telling, what did they remember or repeat in a social media post about that speaker? And with so MANY speakers, whose names

What does it take for a Nurse Practitioner to drop everything to provide healthcare for those in need in Honduras? Just a simple ask.
