Episode 82. Speaking Bruises and How To Move Past Speaking Trauma

Speaking with Confidence with Cat Matson

In this episode of Speaking with Confidence, is all how negative speaking experiences can leave us feeling anxious about public speaking in front of others. The concept of "Bruises >> Brain >> Behaviour" is particularly powerful, and I share both my own and a colleague’s story of the bruises we’ve copped which affected our speaking confidence. The good news is, once you understand how those bruises have informed your brain and then your behaviours, you can untangle them and create new behaviours. Like arnica for your mind 😉 Head over to the Speaking with Confidence Facebook group to share your speaking bruises and the behaviours that you’ve developed as a result.
