Hey Futurists! Managing your nerves as a speaker and embracing a growth mindset is key to showing up confidently on stage. Without this, it’s difficult to practice and master the skills needed to successfully speak. This first session in the beginners’ public speaking cohort will address some of your most common speaking struggles, and you’ll learn tools to manage your speaking anxiety. This will set the foundation for future sessions.

Join me for some impromptu activities we work on our public speaking skills. We will begin with a warm-up activity to address any butterflies living in our stomachs. Then together we will take turns practicing our delivery, minimizing our fillers, and vocal variety. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned speaker the call will be a fun and safe place to practice.

In this session, I will teach you multiple methods for managing public speaking anxiety. In addition, I will provide you with rehearsal techniques and delivery strategies to help you feel more confident in your public speaking abilities. We will wrap up by practicing some of these coping strategies and answering questions.
