How Podcasting Helped Me Overcome My Fear of Speaking
Episode 137
Have you ever felt your body betray you when it’s time to speak in public ?
Your heart races. Your hands shake. Your mind goes blank.
That used to be me — every single time.
In this episode, I share how I used podcasting to face my fear of public speaking and how each rep behind the mic helped me find my voice again. From my first nervous recordings in a closet to lessons learned through hundreds of interviews, this one’s about courage, repetition, and learning to breathe through the fear.
You’ll learn:
How to reframe stage fright as energy, not failure
Why repetition builds rhythm and confidence
The power of hearing your own voice
Simple tools like box breathing and grounding to calm your nerves
Why courage is built in reps, not in perfection
Takeaway:
You don’t have to be fearless to be heard. Every time you face the mic, you shrink the fear.
