Speaker 1: Glossophobia. Yeah. That is the fear of public speaking. And it is super real. And, in fact, most people have it because they would rather die in a crashing airplane than to actually speak in front of people. Isn't that sad? Because we have to speak in front of people all the time. So, it's real in that if you have heart palpitations, your stomach feels like you've got bats going crazy in it. Your hands are shaking. You're sweating. That is because I believe, and this is just my theory, is that you're letting that little chatter box inside of our minds, who are degrading us every single day on everything from what we're going to wear to what we're going to eat to how everyone's looking at us and, oh my gosh, you might have something in your teeth or your fly is down. It will say anything to disrupt our attention on our higher self, which I would call the coach. And the coach voice is the one that knows that you're a rising star. It knows that you know your stuff. And if you can just listen to that voice, then you are going to be in more control than most people. It may not wipe out glossophobia, but it can definitely help. And I think most of the clients that come to Story Fruition who do have it are so intrigued by the fact that if they have to do a presentation, that by learning storytelling skills, that helps quell that chatter box from going off. Because why? Storytelling is fun. And when would you use a story in a presentation? It could be that you're talking about a customer success story and you're going to tell it in the mind movie method that we teach. It's fun. It's really fun. And I have seen clients go from turning their cameras off and crying for a minute because their chatter box got the best of them to coming back on and remembering what I taught them, that the coach knows what they're doing. And if they can just get off of themselves and onto their words, that is the difference in helping control that real and very highly stressful situation for people. So if you're really having problems with this and you have to present a lot now, you're a rising star. Call us. This is why we get up every day here at Story Fruition is that we want every presenter to feel not just confident, but excited about what they're learning, excited to share what they know and to edutain their audience, no matter what platform they're on. So if you suffer from glossophobia and you want to get over it, get it in control, you've got the tools inside you. And we're here to help you harness that. All right. Good luck. And may you tell your stories and tell them well.
