It will be tremendously difficult to be an effective communicator if you’re not comfortable with your voice as it sounds to the rest of the world. Getting comfortable with how you sound is an important step toward delivering your message in a compelling and influential way.
Congratulations on completing the first part of the course. In the next video lecture, I'll share more resources (you can find them in the Section 2 Resources section) and some recommendations (I'll have more recommendations after Section 3) for getting the most out of the foundation of confidence you've started building. You have the core components you need to build a foundation of confidence and if you put what you've learned into practice it will change your life!

The quickest path to being a more confident speaker
Join me in this fun and simple learning experience and next-level your speaking skills. There's some work involved, but If you follow the instruction in this course you'll start to feel more confident almost immediately. Even if you're already a confident speaker, this course will help you get to the next level with techniques and strategies you haven't tried before.
Additionally, increasing your confidence in speaking will inherently increase your confidence in other parts of your life. This course will focus on public speaking but if you'd just like to be a little more confident in general, it can help with that, too.
Everyone has a great message to share and a powerful story to tell. The world is a better place when you and your unique message can be heard. This course is designed to help you with that!
In this course, you'll learn seven strategies to help you be a more confident public speaker. I'll show you how to take these seemingly simple strategies and turn them into powerful confidence-building tools. I've coached and trained public speaking skills all over the world for many years. What I've found through that experience is there are many skills that can help you be a great public speaker but none of them will work until you master two fundamental skills; breath control and voice control. Mastering these two skills will help anyone become a confident speaker and build confidence in other parts of life. In Section 2 of this course, we'll focus on those two skills.
Additionally, you'll learn the five most impactful strategies for building confidence while you're speaking to an audience. I've taken the five components of public speaking people most commonly struggle with and put together techniques for improving each of them. These techniques are designed to help you look and feel more confident during your presentation. You'll learn strategies for improving things like your stance, body language, hands and gestures, eye contact, and more. In this course, you'll work hard to learn and practice proven techniques designed to help you build the confidence you need to be heard in this noisy world! We'll also have some fun along the way.
After completing this course you can expect to:
Speak with confidence and credibility in front of any audience
Have a tool for calming your nerves and anxiety when the pressure is on
Be more influential when it counts
Have more confidence in all aspects of your life
Know how to engage your audience
Know how to use your hands and gestures more effectively
Understand the power of eye contact and how to use it effectively
