When it comes to public speaking and presentation skills, our brain loves to play a little trick on us.

It’s called the WHAT IF? game.

What if I forget my content? What if they don’t like me? What if my content just generally sucks? What if I walk up on stage? What if I walk up on stage and I trip and I fall? What if my dress is terrible??

If you notice that heaps of questions come up like that in relation to fear around public speaking, identify that it’s actually just public speaking anxiety showing up in a mental loop, and it’s totally normal and it’s nothing to be afraid of!
