Thanks to the advances in technology and social networks, society has gotten used to communicating and interacting hidden behind a screen.  This practice increased even more during COVID. 

This new way of interacting and building relationships has transformed public speaking into more uncommon, uncomfortable, and, in some cases, avoidable. This context has significantly increased the fear of speaking.

However, this issue isn't merely a superficial challenge caused by technology and social media. It can also be rooted deeply in our past experiences, particularly in our childhood memories and traumas. 

Whether you are part of the society that feels more comfortable interacting through a computer or whether you had unpleasant experiences in your childhood, recognizing and addressing these underlying causes is crucial for overcoming the obstacles that hinder our growth and success. 

Are you ready to feel comfortable speaking in front of large groups of people? Let’s walk through your past.

The Roots of Fear

The fear of speaking, or glossophobia, can significantly impact an individual's life, limiting opportunities for professional advancement and personal satisfaction. Thus, it is important to understand that our current fears can be intricately linked to our past experiences. 

Childhood is a formative period when we're most vulnerable to developing fears that can persist into adulthood. Negative experiences such as public embarrassment, harsh criticism, or even observing the anxieties of those close to us can embed a deep-seated fear of speaking. Does this sound familiar to you?

Understanding the Impact

These early traumas can manifest in various ways as we grow older, from avoiding public speaking opportunities to feeling anxious during casual conversations. Even if digital meetings can make things a bit easier, those negative experiences can also affect you.

The implications extend beyond personal discomfort; they can stifle professional growth, hinder leadership potential, and limit our ability to connect with others on a meaningful level. 

In other words, the fear of speaking can become a barrier to expressing our authentic selves and sharing our ideas and innovations with the world. It can deprive us of growing professionally and connecting with people.

If you are not able to give your opinion in a job meeting, you don’t feel your point of view is worth to be shared or you are not sure how to share your feelings, it’s time to find the root of your fear and overcome it.

The Path to Overcoming

Identifying the source of our fears is the first step toward addressing them. By revisiting our childhood experiences with compassion and understanding, we can begin to untangle the threads of our current fears. 

This process involves acknowledging the impact of past traumas and recognizing how they shape our present behaviors and reactions. During my sessions, you will find a supportive space for exploring your personal history, understanding the origins of fears, and developing strategies to confront and overcome them. 

I aim to teach you how to transform your mindset and embrace opportunities for growth and expression. Of course, I’ll walk with you during this process.

Embrace the Challenge

Let’s be clear. Facing your fear of speaking is not just about becoming more comfortable in front of an audience; it's about reclaiming your voice and your confidence. It's an opportunity to heal from past traumas, to grow beyond your perceived limitations, and to unlock your potential for leadership, innovation, and connection. 

With the right support and strategies, you can transform your fears into stepping stones towards achieving your highest aspirations.

The good news? You don’t have to do it alone! I can help you confront your past, and pave the way for a future where your voice is heard, your ideas are shared, and your true potential is realized. 

After this process of personal development, your computer will be just a tool and not a place to hide. 

The power of growth is within you.
