Do you feel sick in your stomach whenever you speak before an audience? Many of us do, and sometimes when that happens we think that we are not worthy of this privilege. However, it is good to remember that there are two types of speakers on a stage: those who were born speakers and those who were made for speaking. Mike Acker is one of today’s legendary speakers. He has been speaking for over 20 years, and has affected a myriad of individuals, companies, and institutions. With his speaking prowess, nobody would think Mike has speech impediment. His fear of speaking was so intense he suffered from psychosomatic fever when he spoke to an audience. In this episode, Ted and Mike share how their journey was like before they were able to develop full confidence as public speakers. From their stories you will learn how to overcome the paralyzing effect of fear, articulate your message better, and speak your real voice. Mike also shares how the weights we often carry affect how we show up on stage, and where to place those weights so that they serve us rather than weigh us down. As you prepare for your next speaking engagement, listen to these 3 simple tricks you can do to reduce pressure and give yourself an advantage on stage.
